Wow Jim thats awesome,
Steven Meisel rented my camera for this shoot a while back.
It was just a backup lol, i got payed for it to never come out of the case ; )
I love my Red, but i need me a DSMC !!
Mostly for the lightweight body.

We did the capture on the Klein and Leibovitz jobs... just so no one is getting confused ;)
 
Lookin' goooood! :sifone:
 
Awesome :). I've always wondered why magazines didn't just do that for photoshoots, given the quality of cameras we had, but once the Red came along, the resolution problem was solved.
 
Some really good examles there. I'm excited to see how the FixedScarlet can stand up. How gamy ( gamy? MANY! [ iPod autocorrect ] ) MP is it supposed to have? 5 is more than enough for almost all purposes.

These jobs keep popping up... more and more stills folks are getting into this. Had a demo a week ago, have another tomorrow, a RED stills job later this week... yeesh!

In all honesty, I never expected it to take off the way it has [although I know nothing about the stills industry]. Once one major spread did it, the floodgates opened. Nice foresight, guys.

I really hope the DSMC system will be able to flash sync beyond what the current crop of high end 35mm FF DSLR's currently do. That'd a big plus for a lot of fashion work with strobes.
 
If I can easily shoot 3-5 second high-FPS clips a S35 Scarlet will completely revolutionize the way I do my rock climbing photography. I can't wait!
 
In the future ... you won't see strobes on fashion & editorial shoots.
That's a big factor that tons of people just aren't realizing; continuous lighting is the future with these cameras.
 
Sensitivity will play a huge factor. Shooting at higher frame rates or with a tighter shutter needs a lot of light, particularly with the RED ONE. I really hope that the new cameras are a true 500ASA... or at least 320 or 400! I've seen some really great stills results from the RED ONE, but it requires a lot more light than most stills guys are used to. :)

The best motion/stills shoots I've seen have been shot by commercial DPs.
 
Shooting this way is why getting the form factor down to a manageable size is really a game changer for those of us coming from the still universe.
Especially for shoots that don't involve studio set ups.

We still want high frames rates though.

Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads ; )

I'm guessing you're referring to an amalgamation of ultra sensitive sensors, HDR and photoshop ?

If so, IMO there will still be a place for strobes... there are certain looks that are very difficult to get without them.

edit: duh- I just realized you were referring to continuous lighting.... a few posts happened while I was posting. The one X factor is cost and portability.
