We recently picked up a RED Monstro 8k fresh off a Major film set. Whenever I get a new camera in a spend the first few weeks testing frame rates, battery life, operating weight and image quality. I used the 35mm SLR Magic APO MicroPrime . Here are my finding thus far:
The 8k image is flat out amazing
The lenses must be full frame to use the full sensor
It’s not much heavier than the other DSMC2 cameras
It Drains the battery faster ( not by much) than the other RED cameras we have
