Hi Muroshi,

As far as I know Wayne's just released Rev2, so 3 might be a bit optimistic!

He lives in the same town as me, and I had the opportunity to pop round to his place and play about with the SGpro Rev 2 whilst in development, and I can highly recommend it - I shot some charts and it is probably the sharpest 35mm adapter (across the entire image) available, imo.

You can order one online from www.sgpro.co.uk - they're very reasonably priced but you might have to enquire about shipping costs to Switzerland.

Oh, there is an R3 achromat on the way, from my understanding, but I'm not sure it's released yet...

It is soon, but he's actually working on an SGPro Rev3, not just the new achromat. It'll have minor improvements to the support system, standard 85mm distance from rods centre to lens centre and better compatibility with PL and OCT-19 lenses. Check www.sgpro.co.uk for more info.

Thanks for your inputs

800 Euro is much above wayne's price though.

Rev 3 is the actual model, he is working on Rev 4 from what I've read on dvxuser.com. ;)

Yes, I have an R3. Ordered it months ago. It finally arrived and it's great. I wouldn't want to sell it unless someone offered me considerably *more* than what I paid for it.

If you ordered now, you'd only get it in November. It's kinda like the Red, but on a smaller scale - it's not surprising that they are being sold for more than the price new ;)

I'm sure he's working on a R4, just I'm sure Red is working on a compact camera, a Red Two, etc. It doesn't affect the current laws of supply and demand.

Wow, he's going through the revisions pretty fast! It was only a short while ago I was round at his place (maybe spring this year) and he was working on the R2... Good for you Wayne!

His system is great, used it on a few shoots (I've got an M2, but a friend who I shoot with a lot uses the R1, which is still excellent even though it's now out-dated).

Sorry for the misinformation, my bad...

[Matt Garrett]

I'm pretty sure he's hired some help and the lead time will be cut down pretty soon.

Bruce, you still need to post some footage!

Red is working on a compact camera

Bruce, is there an official announcement of it? I only read some speculation.
