We’re breaking down some of the first hands-on reviews of the RED V-Raptor for all your filmmaking needs.
RED has long made a name for itself as perhaps the gateway cinema camera for those looking to make the jump from the comfortable confines of their favorite DSLR or mirrorless cameras and into actual high-end cinematography workflows.
There have been several different RED cameras over the years, which have served as that first jumping-point camera before you watch your friend turn into a bonafide RED-head and join the cult… I mean community.
All jokes aside, there’s a good reason why RED’s newest camera—the V-Raptor—might be the new meta for the aspiring amateurs looking to turn into real auteurs and professionals. With a 35.4MP full-frame CMOS sensor that offers 8K VistaVision and 6K Super35 coverage, as well as 17+ stops of dynamic range and coming in at a price point under $25,000 (plus cheaper for renting, obviously), this indeed might be the best RED camera yet.
