EPIC Pulling 7G's @ Mach 0.95 via a F-16 Fighter Jet.

WOW! 7 G's? That Epic must have felt like you were holding a Redone. hehe ;)

This is great stuff; however, max verticle climb and rollover in an F-15D is a real gasser!
Congrats & looking forward to seeing whats next!

I might be missing something, but most pictures posted on here just appear as a dash (-) for me. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, doesn't matter.

Thanks

It's a conspiracy. We all like to sit around and discuss imaginary images. ;)


Anyway, it could be a security setting. Most likely something to do with anti-virus or anti-malware software on your system, since it's happening across browsers. Depending on how and where you get your internet access, the lack of images could possibly even be something happening in terms of filtering at your router/gateway or ISP level.

Thanks, turning off Adblock worked. Even though I don't have it installed on Safari and Firefox... Cool picture, I want to see what the epic was seeing!

Likewise I've been involved with using an Epic in some similar cutting edge aerospace environments . We have a lot of camera choices but we use the Epic because we can get RAW image data (think dynamic range) at 4k at 120fps. Coupled with a lightweight, versatile Canon lens (like the 24-105IS or 70-200IS) You get a lot of bang in a package that can pull 7Gs handheld in the back seat of a fighter. (Although at 7gs, I don't think the cameraman was getting much of a shot at that point)
There is ongoing research and evaluation with DARPA like projects that involve advanced imaging (like that found on the Epic) that will definitely save lives not to mention tax dollars. RED would be very wise to actively encourage those type of programs.

Who took photo of you and RED? Pilot? facing backward at 7G..... Hey I'd start to be fearful when he doesnt look where he is going?????

[Tim Whitcomb]

All I know is that is a LONG lens to handhold at 7G vibration! Hope he got focus! lol
