Operating in deep snow at altitude

Its the RED 18-85.. The thing is beastly.

orlando,

 

I gotta ask what lens that is you had on there. Before I opened up the photo and could only see the thumbnail, I thought that my ongoing joke of putting the 12-1 on a 5d on a sled had come true! Regardless, that lens looks beastly, I thought I'd seen em all!.

Hey Thomas,

 

It was the Red Pro 18-85mm, it is indeed a beast.

Goddamn 10 lb. lens is what that is. I actually wouldn't mind it with the Epic; that camera can use the extra weight.

Here's a pic of a Red MX on my rig with the 18-85 w/ 3 motors, a 4 stage matte-box, the red drive cradle w/ a drive and a v-mount on the back, and also a CamWave. I was going at full-charge around the side of a mountain (wearing football cleats) to keep up with the actor. I would HATE to have to shlep something like this in the snow. Although there was that one Genesis job in the snow that some of you know about . . . :P

Hi Tommy ,

I'm on the east coast and could not help you further than probably ask your grips about it or call a specialised rental store where they rent wheelchairs .

The only two roll-a-ramp available here are privatly owned by grips .

Cheers

 

Thank you, I'll give it a whirl.
