Jared Abrams is a cinematographer based in Hollywood, California. After many years as a professional camera assistant he switched over to still photography. About two years ago a new Canon camera changed the way the world sees both motion and still photography. He just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

    Why is this guy such a jerk every time he is interviewed? All he does is bash DSLR’s and all the other professional HD cinema cameras out there like the Arri and the Sony’s by saying they arn’t real cameras, and that Red’s are the only cameras that really matter.

    Agreed. And what was that about “kids and NASA” ?

    Ted basically skipped over the Arri Alexa, a more expensive but hugely more stable camera.. A few years ago, it was easier to be enthusiastic about Red, but now, since they still can’t deliver ANY product on schedule, I’m almost wishing that the new cameras by Sony and the upcoming 4K JVC camcorder will drive these jerks out of business.

    I talked with John Rhys-Davies about a months ago right after he came back from a set visit of the Hobbit in New-Zeland and the cinematographer, Andrew Lesnie, apparently has a love/hate relationship with the terribly buggy Red Epic cameras.

    Shut up already, Ted, and deliver your Scarlets !

    I think I am going to change my saying from Stop being a Douche to ( STOP BEING A SCHILOWITZ )

    Until you can produce a camera which, when you set your light-meter to its native ASA, exposes correctly, then you can’t bash other camera systems.

    Also, the Alexa does a cleaner and more reliable 2k than the RED one. “Only true cinema resolution camera” my arse.

    I wish RED would stop inventing proprietary bullshit and just develop a stable freaking camera system. HDRx, R3D, 5k, it’s all crap. (see this excellent article: http://magazine.creativecow.net/article/the-truth-about-2k-4k-the-future-of-pixels)
