Anamorphics, finally
Red today announced the development of RED Pro Anamorphics (RPAs). Thew will be available in 35mm, 50mm, 85mm and 100mm. All T2.4 Wow. I’m stunned. RED is rocking the Lens Market again. With this Lenses they probably are now a Company that offers virtually everything a filmmaker needs Lens-wise.
Now an announcement of the development of a screw on anamorphic adapter for the fixed Scarlet would be nice…
Anyhow, are Jims Words:
Tonight we are announcing the development of the RPAs (RED Pro Anamorphics). They will match color, optical quality and mechanical performance characteristics with their little brothers… the RPPs. The weight of the RPAs is expected to be within 1/2 pound of the RPPs.
Initial set will consist of:
35mm T2.4
50mm T2.4
85mm T2.4
100mm T2.4A 25mm T2.4 is also being studied.
Delivery of the 4 lens set is expected by year’s end… although you know the schedule drill.
Prices will be slightly higher than RPPs.
