Filmmaker Brandon Washington and his production company took the RED V-RAPTOR out for a trio of projects.
Check out how this brilliant cinema camera performed.
If you want to create your own RED rig, be sure to check out the items that Brandon used to bring his vision into reality.
An 8K VistaVision sensor serves as the core of the RED V-RAPTOR and will deliver absolutely stunning footage without fail. Built on the new DSMC3 platform and sized only slightly larger than the KOMODO, the V-RAPTOR is a cinema camera that can do it all and be built out to serve perfectly in nearly any workflow.

Without good lenses no cinema camera can be expected to perform.
Premium Full-Frame Zooms
Enjoy versatility and smooth operation with the DZOFilm CATTA Ace FF zoom lenses. Offering 35-80mm and 70-135mm focal lengths along with a constant T2.9 aperture you will be pleased when paired with the V-RAPTOR.

Unlock AF and More with RF Glass
The V-RAPTOR sports a Canon RF lens mount, meaning it can take full advantage of electronically controlled lenses with autofocus from Canon’s full-frame mirrorless lineup—including the stellar RF 24-70mm and 70-200mm f/2.8 L series.

Affordable, Sharp Primes
Pick up a full set of Xeen lenses to enjoy versatility within a set of well-matched cinema primes. Available in a six-lens bundle from 14mm to 135mm you will be able to realize your vision with these Rokinon lenses without breaking the bank.

For Handheld Gimbal Work
A benefit of the V-RAPTOR’s relatively compact size is that it’ll fit on many standard gimbals without issue. You’ll still want something serious and that is where the DJI Ronin 2 is going to be the perfect fit.

Handle Every Bump
Professional video capture from a car-mounted rig demands stability and the Tilta Shock-Absorbing Arm will deal with every bump and then some.

Safe and Secure Storage
Make sure you capture all the gorgeous footage you need with some certified media in the standard CFexpress Type B form factor.

Powerful Power Solutions
You’ll need to keep the V-RAPTOR juiced up and a pair of long-lasting and relatively compact V-mount batteries will just about do the trick.

Full Control with Bright and Colorful LEDs
Craft the image you want by taking control of the lighting. Aputure makes effective lights and has a range of options so you can get the exact look you need.

Big & Bright On-Set Monitors
On-camera monitors get a lot of attention, but you’ll need something bigger for true productions and client shoots. The Atomos Sumo 19” SE is big, bright and has all the monitoring, recording, and switching tech the company has developed over the years.

Beautiful Aerial Imagery
You’ll want to add some aerial imaging to your kit and you’ll need something that matches the RED quality. DJI comes close with the Mavic 3 Cine drone with a larger sensor than its predecessor and ProRes recording.
