Hi,
My first post on this forum. I am a long time Red camera user and currently own the Red Epic X which I have been using for years. It still works flawlessly despite being dropped once. In fact it seemed to work better after it was dropped. I am quite astonished by the fact that a little inexpensive 4k camera is making its way into professional cinematography.
Anyway, a viewfinder is critical for the work I do and I have been doing research. In fact I am not really sure how people shoot without one. Forget the portkeys viewfinder. The fan noise on it is VERY loud. The only really viable option at the moment appears to be the Zucuto line and they are of course pricey. However, I am going to stump up the cash for the new Kameleon which is very light and has a small form factor. It is worth the cost because the Kameleon is vesatile and is usable on many cameras - it can receive both an HDMI or SDI signal. I am sure it will outlive the pocket 4k and be used on furture blackmagic cameras and others. .
Anyway, once I have the evf and and all the bits and pieces to set the camera up on a balanced proper shoulder rig I will let you all you know how I go.
Cheers
