question

How far is it accurate for the Red Deagon camera while shooting on 6k or a 4k? Is it really helpful using this?
Asked by: Anonymous
Products like this are very helpful for directors to visualize shots. It offers 35mm at focal lengths from 18-200mm and Anamorphic between 30-400mm. It should be a big help when shooting a film with a Red Dragon.
