Jim Jannard posts online: "Don't forget... we have a RED AF lens program. Our lenses are cinema grade with well controlled breathing. They also will cover FF35. 1st lens is the 24-75mm F2.8. There is a wide zoom and a long zoom to follow.

Focus is manual, one touch on the run-stop button, touchscreen or Pro REDmote. Single or continuous... and tracking. Also... rate control. The system is designed to work with Canon, Nikon and other programs, but will work best with RED lenses. No surprise.

What we are doing with AF is a long process with a ton of opportunities to add possibilities. Plan on it working when the cameras are shipped. Then plan on it getting better with more options as time passes."

More words from Jim on the Touch Focus System coming soon:

"I have worked with this AF a bit and I can see a few ways to use it. If you have talent that is 9' 6" away, you can tape it off and set it with your lens scale... assuming the lens and back-focus are dead nuts. Or you can visually set it with your EVF, LCD or external monitor. Or you can touchscreen it and get it dead on, then rack focus manually as they move. But you know you started with perfect focus. Really... you need to see this. Each will find a different way to add it to the arsenal. Or not. MF is always an option... just like you have always done. But my bet is that most will find a way to embrace this technology, not unlike how the still world has with DSLRs. Options are good. Trust me when I tell you this is a good option.

Focus pullers aren't going anywhere, and neither are PL mount lenses. This is all about options and the ability to have more tools to help in various situations. Some will never use AF... some will find a way to use it some of the time and some will embrace it a lot. This is better than having no option at all."
