RED Dragon and Laser art installation filming

[Jean Déraps]

I know that there are issues with shooting and lasers. I have a friend who wants me to film an art installation where there should be no direct laser light (it will be reflected off walls, etc. Are there any specific issues with this? Is this very dangerous to shoot with my Epic?

if the laser hits the sensor you might permanently damage it.

Fried a sensor on a jib last year when the band's light show turned from 30 degrees of laser light show to 120 degrees of laser bonanza on a musical cue.

It put a permanent purple streak on the image. KEEP YOUR CAM AWAY FROM FRICKIN LASER BEAMS!!!
