This video has been on the web for awhile now, but I just got around to posting it. It was posted by DP Timmy Rubensteiner who has his camera assistant Bubba Jo show us how the RED camera works.
Make sure you watch this video in it’s entirety before you try to operate the magic movie input machine that is the RED camera **works for MX sensor too**
Timmy was kind enough to put this video together after his mom bought him a RED and he instantly became a DP. Of particular importance is how to mount the lens.
LOL. Gotta love Bubba Jo and that Red camera.
Reading off Engadget, found at the comprehensive Reduser.net forums, Jim Jannard (founder of RED) has apologized for the "embarrassingly late" production delays on the Epic and Scarlet cameras. He explains the cause of the delay was a bug that took months to find and put a "bullet in the back of it's head."
Every camera assistant will have different tools depending on how they work. That’s why it’s important to peak into what other camera assistants have to offer. So I’m going to show you what I have in my toolkit today and also give you advice on what I think you should have in yours.
