Hi RED team
Here is a thought for future lens development.
Rear filters.
Many lens systems over the years have featured this option for various reasons.
With RED's native ASA of 320 it is pretty much guaranteed you will be using an ND outside. With the IR issues it sounds like a hot mirror is going to be a regular player. With a daylight native sensor, VFX work might require tungsten lighting with an 80A,etc, etc.
Perhaps future lens design could incorporate the ability to use two rear filters?
