First impressions of RED EPIC-M #00022, as posted online by Mike Seymore:
"Firstly - thanks for the kind words. I should say we wont be posting any un-boxing videos or pretty Epic pictures. Nothing wrong with that but not what interests us.
We are interested in taking it on location for a week or two and shooting some seriously cool stuff.
So I will post some initial comments but then I will post only after we have some cool footage and shoots to discuss. The good news is that fxphd shoots are not confidential so we will not have problems with footage / releases etc.
- it is small - as that photo shows. Actually this photo is very accurate - without a lens or an LCD it is tiny. Solid but tiny. Jeff H (who was also at RED today) is posting a comparison between the Red one and the Epic - on fxguide.com in a few minutes. We tried to match angles so you could see a valid comparison.
- it is very well made
- The HDR is sensible and impressive
- The grip is really wonderful to use and hold
We also got to preview some cool tech hanging out with Jim, Deanan and Jarred this afternoon... such as working Canon auto-focus Canon mounts, Volt batteries, etc... so there is more stuff coming very soon.
- Cant discuss some things obviously from today, but it was insanely fun.. thanks Travis, Jarred, Deanan and Jim.
one final thing...
The Current RC 83 podcast - which went live today - was recorded on Friday before I left. So the EPIC podcast will be the one that follows, later this week RC 84."
