Asked by: Justin
Yes, it is possible to work with a servo zoom lens on the RED DIGITAL CINEMA V-RAPTOR XL 8K VV Cinema Camera (Gold Mount). A build route is using a Super 35mm crop of the sensor and pairing the Canon CINE-SERVO 25-250mm T2.95 Cinema Zoom Lens (PL Mount) with the IDX System Technology C-ZLPRO D-Tap to Hirose Cable for Canon CINE-SERVO Zoom Lenses (12.5") to power the lens a D-Tap port on a brick battery.
