Personally I can say that this is one of the best cameras to personally own. The dynamic range on this camera supersedes the RED ONE by a long shot. If you include the ease of coloring the 1080P 4:2:2 footage, the results can be amazing. I have shot commercials, features, shorts, and live events with this camera and when a matte box and filters are added, your options are unlimited.

WHY I AM SELLING:
I love this camera. So it pains me to have to see it go, but my photography work has picked up and I am transitioning to an "above the line" position that does not require me to have a camera. This camera and I have shared many weeks of production, but it is time to move on.
I tallied up all of the parts that went into putting this together and I have put over $32K into this rig, now its yours for a steal.

are you intersted in parting it out? if so, what would you want for just the lens, rails and the rails mount?
 
Ill seperate the rails and mount, I want to keep the lens and body together for now.

It has the AC-401-89 mount on it.

Rails and mount can go for $500 shipped.
 
I would still like to sell this as a complete package. You'll be ther first to know when I change my mind.
 
Bumping....Price reduced to 18K and Canon Zoom Controller added.

Oh and I'm parting out.

Make offers on everything.
