Epic Announcements

Some very interesting RED announcements are up on their site. They mainly concern upcoming, hopefully shortly upcoming, EPIC specs and pricing. There are some other images of Tatoo beta units, production renders, a carbon fiber matte box, and other goodies down through the postings, as well.

Some are particularly elegant.

Others, such as this sensor comparison chart, are pretty informative and useful.

Finally, one of the most interesting things for me is the active Nikon (and other) lens mounts. :-)

If anyone wants to front the money for a beta unit, I would gladly put it through a grueling round of testing and use!

Amsterdam is a great place to visit, and since I learned that last year, I was a bit sad when I missed traveling there this year. IBC was in Amsterdam per usual and recently ended.
There was some neat new stuff out from Red. Their showreel is always fun and impressive. (I recommend right-clicking to download). Also, visit RGM Camera Network’s site for some updates on the Epic that include some nice photos and videos. I enjoyed seeing the comparisons to the Red One body.  It looks like it will be a lot of fun to use.
