Man, this thread is awesome! Billy, you got one of those Zacuto setups? That thing looks slick! But I just can't dump money in this thing. I've been thinknig of buying a glidecam or something similar just for doing some basic handheld work. We'll see.
As for RED, yea, that bad boy wouldn't exactly slip into the standard edit bay! I was reading about the Genesis in American Cinematographer I think. Nice setup, but Panavision has to be looking over their shoulder at RED. Especially, for B-Unit work or small production. At 2k, RED could step all over CineAlta and Varicam. But those cams are well established (though REALLY costly).
You're dead on about the picture too. Still need light, and still need glass. Any idea on nice primes for the RED yet? I think I saw they had something nice for it. When Cooke get's in the game, things could step up quickly.
...I've got Milk Girls on the brain!
