Red One Camera Bags and Weather Protection Covers by Camrade.

True to the RED DIY spirit that Redmodz is all about, Reduser member Radamo constructed a hands free system for the Red One.

Breaking news. Late last night the Red Fire Chief, Jarred Land, has spoken. The Canon Birger mount, which lets you mount Canon still lenses,  gets the green light for NOT voiding the camera's global warranty.  Here is to hoping that the IMS and Visual Products BNCR adapter eventually get the "non voiding" warranty approval. 

 "At this point we are prepared to move forward with this.. I am pleased to announce that the Birger mount will not void the global camera warranty with the modifications Erik has done. Note though.. that any parts damaged from a potential electronic malfunction directly caused by the mount will not be covered.. and things like breaking the adjustable PL of the mount on removal/installation will not be covered ( since it never was designed to be removed). Because of the removal of the adjustable section is required, the Birger mount will not be RED Certified, but I think alot of you will be happy with the fact that it does not void your global camera warranty."

Reduser #1542, Dexter Gregoire, made a DIY Handheld solution for the Red using the following off the shelf parts:

1 Bicycle handle bar (I bought the Cruiser model) @ $16.99.
2 Stems (I bought the Devinci model) @ $16.99 Each.
2 Shims to properly mount the stems @ $2.99 Each.
1 Pair of rubber grips (To hold on to) @ $9.99.
A little bit of help from the salesman to make sure everything is stable $FREE.

Here are some nice closeup photos of ET's upcoming Speedy V-Lock Clamps.

I hope this actually comes out at some point and isn't just "vapor" gear. We shot them an email and we'll see if we get any response. It it is nice to see more options for quality follow focus units. 

No new updates on this beauty of a lens yet. Just a NAB 2008 coverage photo found on the net. Below is Jarred Land's style product photography of the Red Zoom. =) Last word was that the 18-85 zoom would release late summer/early fall.
