  • 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 :)

RED 17-50mm Test

To answer my own question, after doing some research I plan to pull the trigger on this guy. My tokina images seems really close to these in both color, contrast and sharpness and I have spoken to other reputable members who confirm that a Tokina would cut well with this.
 
just shot a spec spot with both these lenses and they dance well together
 
When you use the Tokina 11-16mm on the Red, how wide can you go before it vignettes? Since the Tokina isn't designed for a full frame sensor, I am assuming it's usable from 12-16mm or so on the Red One sensor. Is that correct, or can you go even wider?

I've got a Tokina 11-16mm and I'd like to use it with a Scarlet S35 when it comes out. I'm hoping I'll be able to at least use the 13-16mm range on the Tokina with the S35. Thanks,

Matt
 
Thanks for the info guys - appreciate it. Since the upcoming S35 sensor is more like a 1.3 crop factor, I'm guessing the Tokina 11-16 will be usable without vignetting from about 13mm-16mm, ala using the Tokina on a Canon APS-H sensor like the Canon 1D.

Here's a link to an article on how that works out

Sound about right to you?
 
Yea, someone ran the numbers for the 5k crop factor on an other thread but I keep forgetting them. One thing's for sure though, ~13.5mm or whatever it can cover at 5k will be WIDE, and look pretty sweet if you can avoid close foreground objects. And 17mm at 5k sounds like it will be just GREAT in so many situations. Very big FOV and I suppose with a tinie-bit less distortion than from an 18mm on S35.
 
It was relatively quick for mine... a couple weeks or more. It also depends on the status at Red too. I was told a little over a month and it was ready in a little over a couple weeks.

Call the bomb rep is best.
 
I dont know that this lens has been used for 3D yet but from what I understand it will work fine with one of the mirror beam splitting 3D rigs.

With an MMb1 combo, would you still be able to use a rotating pola stage, maybe a screw on?
