Visual greatness...

[PatrickFaith]

What I find insanely great is the mastery of light the camera gives for vfx integration ... the waterfall and "belly" scenes will be studied for decades.

I saw Prometheus yesterday. It looks amazing. Period. It answers every stupid question out there.

Saw it yesterday at midnight (opening night in Mexico City) in IMAX 3D and was blown away by the movie itself and by the quality of the image. Hadn't seen and enjoyed such a good movie in a long, long time, and not much else comes quite close in terms of image quality.

Congratulations, Jim. What you have achieved in just 6 or 7 years is a truly remarkable achievement and is now an important part of Cinema History. Thanks for letting us be a part of it.

Much respect.

Congratulations Jim. It looks amazing. Saw it twice already.

I'm so glad I have the little sister scarlet and leica lenses, what beautiful grain it generates!

Prometheus is an example of visual greatness. Shot on RED.

Wolski did an incredible job. If you ever wondered if RED was up to the task... this is proof.

Ridley's comment was "film grain is so 1960's". Keep in mind that Ridley has shot only film since his beginning... until now.

Wolski and Ridley are shooting RED on their next movie. Wolski's comment... "Epic is the best camera I have ever used".

We are so proud.

Jim

Awesome to know The Counselor will be shot on Epic! Cormac McCarthy is the best writer out there (finally crafting a screenplay!), Scott one of the best directors, and Epic the best camera. Seriously looking forward to this one. It will fly under the radar for awhile.

Great success! I was actually curious if they gonna choose Red for a 2D feature, cause in 3D world there's almost no options except Epic in terms of size of the rig and mobility. Too bad in my IMAX 3D we got only 2K copy of Prometheus (looks a bit softer on a giant screen), still amazing visuals.

I haven't been to the cinema for years (I can watch 2K videos at home, thanks very much). But I will see Prometheus in a cinema. For several reasons, one of them being the cameras. :-)

Great response from Dariusz.

I guess you're doing something right Jim.

[Tim Morten]

Perhaps the most amazing part to me is being able to own the same camera... not to imply that owning the hardware is enough to make anyone a Scott or a Wolski, but having access to a tool is the first step to learning to master it. If it were up to Arri or Panavision (or Sony or Canon for that matter), I am certain that cameras like this would still be out of reach for most of us. There is a lot of great work to come which simply wouldn't have been possible in an era where the 535 was king.

So congratulations to Red for the mainstream success, but also a huge thanks for keeping the price below what Super16 used to cost. I believe Jim is personally responsible for this, and for the tremendous generosity surrounding upgrades - hopefully he hears it enough, but I for one am sincerely grateful. I'm not sure how many of us will ever do work on the level of Scott and Wolski, but I sure appreciate the possibility!

Saw it yesterday with w/ wonderful actress and we both loved the film. In my mind a perfect scary pre-quel.
