  • 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 :)

Is Red getting ready to release Pro Primes, Mk II?

That scene your talking about in Barry Lyndon was not shot on Super Speeds. Those were shot on the specially developed NASA 0.7 lenses. Super Speeds don't fall off on the sides as much as it sounds. If anyone would like to test this print a focus chart and move the camera to where the chart takes up the entire frame, open up the iris to t1.3, and look at the edge sharpness compared with the center.

Even MKI's don't fall off that bad:

I didn't say they were super speed, i wrote they were made by Zeiss or Angenieux especially for that film and the stop was 0.9 or something like that. The point was to show that sometimes to shoot at wide open stops results in other aspects.
