Well I was at the George Bush camera and I tried to take the lens off and test for myself but Jarred broke my arm and called my mother a floozy. Thanks alot, Jarred. :umm:

About 5" long and 3 pounds, according to Gibby (http://www.studiodaily.com/main/news/7959.html).

It's basically a poor man's cooke 15-40 (6500 vs 45,000) . I know cooke is the shiznit, but this red lens is a STEAL. It looked super nice as they had a live feed of it being displayed on a giant 1080p plasma. It's also gonna be nice for steadicammers.

[Rick Darge]

I think its pretty much a no brainer now of what to buy.. Nikon SLR zoom or Red PL ?

[dalemccready]

Sorry, this size :nerd:


If anyone needed any confirmation, you can see the S/i interface on the back of that lens.

Haven't seen the receiving port on the lens mount yet though.

Cool stuff though, we use the split/DOF info all the time. It's super accurate and the focus pullers know exactly when they held the split.

Sorry, this size :nerd:

Hey Dale, what's split/DOF?

Cheers,

Brook is not speaking of the hands holding the lens! These are a woman's hands. :shifty:

A split is what is considered in acceptable focus behind and in front of prime focus.

Somewhat of a judgement call.
