Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will it fit Canon EF lenses?

A: It's not the lens mount that's going to matter (EF, PL, etc), it's the size of the lens barrel. This matte box is made to fit standard 114mm cinema lenses, but Bright Tangerine makes a bunch of affordable step down rings. I have the 77mm step down rings which fits all the more affordable Rokinon lenses. Just look on the front of your lens and it will tell you the size.

Q: 2. Do the RF lenses cover the full sensor without vignetting?

A: The RED DIGITAL CINEMA V-Raptor Starter Pack (without Batteries) (B&H# REVRPTRSPNB) has a sensor that is about 14 percent wider than a typical full frame sensor. If one uses a lens that does not cast an image circle to cover the full 40.96mm sensor width, the result is increased vignetting relative to using a sensor with a more standard width of about 35mm. That will vary by lens, of course. The benefit of having such a wide sensor is that it is therefore possible to adapt lenses to fit on the camera that will cast especially wide image circles as do many PL/LPL mount lenses.

Q: 3. Does this camera come with a PL mount?

A: No it does not. It comes with an RF Mount. It is possible to use PL lenses using adapters like the Metabones Lens Mount Adapter for ARRI PL-Mount Lens to Canon RF-Mount Camera (B&H # MEMBPLEFRBT1 MFR # MBPL-EFR-BT1)

Q: 7. Does Misfit Atom hold 100mm x 100mm square filters?

A: Hello Seth yes the Misfit Atom does hold 100mm x 100mm filters you will have to block the gaps when the filter is in place as the back of the matt box is 114mm.

Q: 8. which is better REDCODE HQ or REDCODE RAW?

A: The differences in REDCODE HQ and REDCODE RAW have more to do with the software you use to work with these during your post workflow. We're assuming your are referring to REDCODE RAW HQ, which does result in a larger file and carries additional data and therefore greater image signal information than REDCODE RAW.

Q: 10. Let me get this straight. This is advertised as an 8k RF-mount camera, but many, if not all, RF- mount lens will vignette. How can this be advertised as an 8k camera?

A: The RED DIGITAL CINEMA V-RAPTOR 8K VV + 6K S35 Dual-Format DSMC3 Camera (Canon RF, Black) (B&H# REVRAPTOR) is advertised as 8K due to the resolution of the sensor and maximum video resolution of 8192 x 4320. True, not all lenses are capable of covering the image sensor, but this camera does offer that option.
