Scarlet #831 "Elena" goes to Disneyland

[Ces Peynetti]

I went to pick up my Scarlet down at Irvine yesterday. Since Disneyland is just around the corner, we thought we'd take it to the "Happiest Place on Earth"

Nice one.

 

[Brad Webb]

Awesome. I'm also jealous you got your side handle already.

Looks like Elena was the Disney parade grand marshal. Have fun.

Congrats! No fair though, I tried to take my Epic into Disneyland just a couple weeks ago and they wouldn't let it in. What was your trick??

 

[Anthony Vu]

Yeah. I was wondering the same thing. Sometimes I see high end photo cameras at Disneyland by the guests there, but never anything RED.

I think I was a bit lucky. I did get stopped once or twice, but thankfully they never rejected me. What I did first is carry in the Scarlet with just the side handle on and a 35mm lens. That way it just seemed like a bulkier dslr. I had the screen and the top handle in a backpack which I put on once I was inside the park.

Something I thought later in the day was that I could probably put a shoulder strap on it. I think that would make a better illusion of not being a pro-grade camera.

Wow , I would have thought they would bust you fast.

How about a big neck strap, with CANON in big lettering. And maybe a Hawaiian shirt !

Yeah, I've been planning ways to get mine into Disneyland. Probably just using the Canon 50MM and separating the components like you did.

Great idea! No one would stop such a tourist.

Congrats Ces! You may now have the only movie camera on earth with its own pair of mouse ears!
