I can also attest to the problems with RED on the post side. I am delivering two films that were shot on red and the headaches are continuous, of course we are posting using FCP and not Avid so that could be adding to the issue as well. Just recently went to Panavision for a seminar on Genesis – now that’s a camera to lust for.

And I was just on a set where they were using the red. It’s really bulky. Very hard to go handheld, which is where the Ikonoskop (hopefully) will be a massive improvement (or a camera like it.)

Great to know this – everyone talks about the Red, but it makes sense that you can do amazing work for a lot less $$.

This rings so true with everything I’ve heard from other cinematographers. There are many talented DPs I know who swear by their Red camera but I’m not sure I will ever understand all the passion for it.
