So as you can see, we've done another major update to the site. We've completely switched video systems, so now we'll have more flexibility with organizing and displaying videos. We are still in the process of converting all of the older videos, but don't worry - they'll all be there soon! We also have new gear coming in from all over that we will be reviewing in the coming weeks!
UPDATE: All of the videos are now online! Enjoy!

I have to say, I'm glad about the new 8GB memory limit on the new MBPs, but losing the express card slot is surprising.

1. Red Prime Demo. ( only 35mm )
Ted ( from Red ) started out with a discussion about some of Red's lens program's history and talked about how they thought the Red prime was in league with the best cine lenses, yet at a fraction of the cost.
There was a short demo comparing the Red 18-50 and the Red 35mm lens visually on a camera. Both lenses looked fine on the monitor, as one would expect - both being able to make a nice 720p image.

So I've finally had some time to sit down with the R2E from Cool Camera Gear and do some speed test...
First off: the setup. For dumping cards/drives we use a Macbook Pro Core2Duo 2.16 with a Tempo 32 expresscard from Sonnet. Attached to this we have a five bay SATA enclosure with 1TB 7200RPM drives.

Aside from the lenses, there were a couple of other interesting things from RED at NAB.
I must admit, being able to see RED RAY in action was pretty amazing. Especially after seeing it side by side with uncompressed 4k.

NAB 2009 seemed to be hot with 2 main things. 1- PL lenses. 2- 3D everything.
As far as lenses go I was very impressed.
