RED EPIC DRAGON 6K Cinema Kit

RED EPIC Dragon 6K large sensor digital film camera

RED EPIC Camera with Dragon Sensor and 400fps slow motion capability and 6K images with the streamlined RED workflow.

A streamlined package specifically designed to maximise shooting options. A 35mm PL lens mount allows you to take advantage of beautiful film lenses – choose from Sony Cine Alta Primes, Cooke Panchros, S4, S5, Dulens Mini Apo, Zeiss Ultra Prime, Zeiss Super Speeds and  Arri Alura Zooms

Amazing 300fps Slow motion

Shoot up to 120fps in 5K or up to 400fps in 1K – note that by shooting in 1K mode, you will have a crop factor of around 50%, so a 24mm lens will act like a 50mm lens for example.  The example below shows a 300fps 2K shot of a hotshoe mount being dropped into a glass of water. If you are careful, you can see a perfect still of the hotshoe mount.

RED Dragon Lens Coverage

The RED Dragon has a larger sensor than regular Super-35 cameras and significantly the previous RED EPIC camera.
