65MM lens attachment adaptor

Just how the mini-35 increased DOF of smaller cameras (like the XL-1) make a device that would do the same for RED. This device would allow for 65mm/IMAX lenses, thus giving the RED camera the increased DOF of 65mm/IMAX film!

Presumably you mean DECREASED depth of field in both instances. Sorry, but I see no advantage to this. 65mm/IMAX lenses are few and far between, not usually available for rental without a camera package, they're generally slow, big and heavy -- and offer SHALLOW depth of field (about the same as 35mm format anamorphics of the same focal length).

Yes, you are correct, it would decrease the DOF. My mistake. The suggestion was kind of a half-joke / thinking outside of the box / throwing-things-to-the-wall-and-sees-what-sticks. I have no experience with 65 mm lens, but thought it was a cool idea.

Going to be on my camera, Pro Video lenses, 16mm, 35mm, and 70mm (65mm).
