  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

EPIC Pulling 7G's @ Mach 0.95 via a F-16 Fighter Jet.

This is great stuff; however, max verticle climb and rollover in an F-15D is a real gasser!
Congrats & looking forward to seeing whats next!
 
Wow indeed! Hmm, an Act Of Valor sequel?? Anyways epic picture!!

I might be missing something, but most pictures posted on here just appear as a dash (-) for me. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, doesn't matter.

Thanks

It's a conspiracy. We all like to sit around and discuss imaginary images. ;)


Anyway, it could be a security setting. Most likely something to do with anti-virus or anti-malware software on your system, since it's happening across browsers. Depending on how and where you get your internet access, the lack of images could possibly even be something happening in terms of filtering at your router/gateway or ISP level.
 
Thanks, turning off Adblock worked. Even though I don't have it installed on Safari and Firefox... Cool picture, I want to see what the epic was seeing!
 
Likewise I've been involved with using an Epic in some similar cutting edge aerospace environments . We have a lot of camera choices but we use the Epic because we can get RAW image data (think dynamic range) at 4k at 120fps. Coupled with a lightweight, versatile Canon lens (like the 24-105IS or 70-200IS) You get a lot of bang in a package that can pull 7Gs handheld in the back seat of a fighter. (Although at 7gs, I don't think the cameraman was getting much of a shot at that point)
There is ongoing research and evaluation with DARPA like projects that involve advanced imaging (like that found on the Epic) that will definitely save lives not to mention tax dollars. RED would be very wise to actively encourage those type of programs.
 
IS Canon lenses have optical image stabilization working with Epic and Scarlet :)
 
I'm not allowed to tell you much about what is going on here .... but the photo is so badass I thought I would share. Thanks Mark ;)

This is absolutely RAD!!! I am very proud of Justin, Ivan and "Mark"!

I can't believe you bastards pulled this off! Can't wait to hear the stories at El Compadre over a flaming Margarita or 3! ;)
 
As an Air Force ROTC cadet looking to possibly get into the public affairs field, I am excited! :D
 
Dang it, I was beat to it! The Scarlet should doing the same in the next few months ...
 
now this is my favorite thread and pic of the week. Video to come? We hope.
