Sorry Dave,I'm not sure we were reading the same article.The author of the blog is certainly no Red fanboy,and his condemnation seemed to be equally directed at both parties.

Perhaps you should have another look.

The article is full of disparaging comments about Bloom and contains no criticism of Red at all.

Film is much more forging than digital.

It is a typo - forging = forgiving ;)

Shooting film is great - enjoy, but remember to plan what you are doing first and don't be afraid to rehearse before takes - stock costs money!

I think this is worth reading,eloquently sums up the whole situation.

:rolleyes:

I didn't find it eloquent; more a mean spirited and skewed take on events, with hints of character assassination and a refusal to find Red or Redusers at fault in any way.

Epic is designed to appeal to the Digital Stills shooters market [DSMC, remember?] with its lighter form factor , stills auto-focus lenses capability, use of standard tripod with quick plate, DSLR style handgrip, etc etc. All of which make the criticisms of Philip Bloom's approach ill-informed.

IMO.

Philip was banned in error. His ban was lifted.

That's not what Philip is saying on Twitter.

I wonder who is telling the truth?
