  • 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 :)

Jim Cameron buys...

It's at LEAST a $10,000 premium to get a machined Epic after you factor in all accessories, etc.
 
at least red knows how many stage 2 epics are on order.
wouldn it be a nice surprise when all of them did get build along with enough media and will be delivered all at once?
that would silent all complaints about line skipping, availability etc.
i trust red as a company based on my history with them.
they always surprised me with offers and support i didnt expect.
 
"Jim Cameron buys...50 EPIC-Ms."

nothing suprising :biggrin:
 
This has got to be a no brainier for Mr. Cameron. Didn't Mr. Cameron spend tons of money in R&D last time around on the cameras for Avatar? He is more than likely getting off cheap compared to using his money on R&D for a new set of cameras that would be inferior to the Epics. At least we know for sure that Avatar 2 will look better than #1. Hopefully he spends his extra time on the script now that the camera are taken care of.
 
It's weird since Cameron Pace Group just signed with Arri to build some stuff around Alexa-M. But their joint-venture is about developping 3D rigs and technology so why not working with both camera (Epic M and Alexa M) ?



Not really surprising, Cameron and Pace have been in business together for a pretty long time only it was called PaceTech in the past.

They've gone from Sony 950 T-Blocks to F23's to F35's to Arri Alexa's and now Epics.

A big company intending to service a lot of productions simultaneously they need a lot, and a variety, of cameras.

It's still amazing news.
 
exciting news and a well earned congratulations, but i will really be impressed when christopher doyle buys one epic.
 
There are some of the latest rumors that JC for C/P Group also "booked" or pre-ordered Sony F65 for his 3D rigs...then they will have all the best digital cameras available...
 
50 is a number that maybe can be set for ring type Matrix style froze effect motion shots hahahahaha just Epics instead of still digi cams, which ....can possibly shoot in sync
hahahahahaha just a guess here , even can be 3d made .

Now can Mr Cameron buy 50 rigs of our moco stuff ? hahahahahahaha

great news well done.
 
this is amazing and beyond anything i ever imagined,now this news will shut up all those peoples who were claiming that 2k and 1080p is all u will ever need because james cameron made the biggest movie ever (read AVATAR) on this resolution. Red is and will always be at the front among the companies making digital cinema cameras............
 
I’m so happy (purely for selfish reasons); the dots are being joined, slowly dot by dot in the way we all hoped they would be (and should be).

Dang, where can you rent a pair of Epics…

(I bet that’s really cheap considering demand)

Wonderful news for everybody.

Cheers,

Eric
 
Does James Cameron not have a new production teamed up with Cirque Du Soleil? Maybe the Arri's or F65 are for that production? We'll know in the official press release. With Avatar to be a water movie, compact maybe needed to house 3-d rigs? All is Speculation of course.
