Are they one in the same or completely different sets?
Need to know so I can decide which to purchase. As of now, and what I've read - Cooke RED set is my preferred way...

You're going to need about $100,000 to buy the Red Cooke Set! Get saving up Kowboy, or has the price made up your mind for you? :innocent:

They're completely different.
The RED prime set is $20,000 and includes five lenses.
The Cooke set is $117,000 and includes the 15-40mm zoom and three [if memory serves...] primes.
The Cooke set is identical to Cooke's normal optics beyond the logos being changed from yellow to red in color.

Link below to the set. I just contacted Cooke the other day they said that set is about 98K. Per Red they said they their goal would be to see their primes be able to match the Cooke primes.

Ah, I wasn't sure about the price. I think the $117k figure is the price if you bought them separately [aka out of the RED set].

Okay, here's one time where the price is determining a lot. However, saving is not a bad idea. I want both sets.
Maybe if I stand out by the freeway and ask for change....
