Wao.. it is a dreadful ninja weapon. Once I get my RED, I could really claim to everyone that I have a serious weapon in hand.

DO NOT TOUCH OR IT REALLY SHOOTS.

I think I saw one of these on a combine. It was a chain sprocket clutch, I think.
 
I think it need a redesign. How can I hold it without cutting myself?
 
Let's pretend it's part of the RED camera... now, everyone's suggestions?

Can you mount it on the top, side, back or bottom of the Red camera?

How heavy is it?

You might get cut when looking through the viewfinder.

I don't think this fits with the cage very well.

How do you fly this thing? Or does it simply hover like a chopper?

Does it act like a windmill - how much power can it create?
 
My biggest concern is that a half-million in liability coverage just won't cut it for a set with this accessory. I see big lawsuits in the future... we're all doomed.

LOL... that could delay RED for another 5 weeks!!! We better post a safety sticker on it - "DO NOT TOUCH while SPINNING. DECAPITATION POSSIBLE."
 
Cam action in question?

Cam action in question?

Please correct me If I am wrong...

But aren't the tooth cam mechanisms backwards or on the wrong side?

The teeth should rotate outward and stop when the rotation reaches a terminal velocity.

When the rotation stops the spring-loaded teeth should retract into the circle.

To my view, the cams are backwards.

This would prevent accurate exposure when flying at high speeds towards unimaginable targets preventing the proper amount of light to reach the Mysterium Sensor yielding inaccurate photon accumulation resulting in an inordnate amount of color correction from an oversaturation of err...Red... :ph34r:

Now..back to your regularly scheduled program... :waaa:

ROFL,
Okay I just have to...LOL.

I don't like it, I'm afraid it will loose me .00125 stops of light there by making the effective dynamic range of my Red one a mere 25 stops!!! This is ludicrous it cannot be tolerated!! I also fear the addition of the teeth will result in to clean of an image and I for prefer the horrific image degrading qualities of quarter sized film grain spattered across my image, as I find it more organic and it detracts from the production qualities of my films :) I vote the design immediately be re-worked NOW and the whole camera be offered at $5,000 price cut, due to the poor iris design!!!

:biggrin:
