The cost to hire its N150,000 per day

I hope you make lots of money with it. Good luck!

Thanks mann,,,, guessing u r the Landlord or shud i say Weblord,,,

Stephen, hmmm marketer. People i have used d camera twice its the shit. Very good if u know what u r doing.

The truth about the camera is that I haven't seen any locally produced project with the RED ONE camera that has impressed me. This is not to spite any producer, DOP or director. If you think otherwise, let us cite case studies.
Let me start:
All the recent Mo'Hits videos have been shot with the camera and none of them has Wow! imagery.
What are they doing wrong?

i think it has some thing to do with the people handling d camera and their expertise.they thinnk its just a plug and play operation, i do thnk that camera is a big deal with the right people handling it.

The RED ONE camera is too similar to film cameras for people to just jump into handling it.
Enough of my talk. I am waiting for more responses.

Afamdman my man,,,,lol,,, hw'v u been?? heard you've finished editing that video i'll like to get a copy,

@all
Sorry guys been busy shooting yesterday we were shooting a tuface & Soti's video,,,
Well as Afam has confirmed its the bomb, if u r interested we can hook up/come to my office i'll show you some references.

Sojiguns it really does depend on who d D.O.P is then u can see d beauty of it will soon be releasing one i shot with it but u can view a sneak view on youtube search for jesse jagz, pump it up. And tell me on facebook what u think.

I just saw the Jesse Jagz video and it looked great but honestly, you barely put the fantastic chip of the RED ONE to the test. You didnt need it for that video. A normal 3CCD imager with a letus or Red rock would have given you the same results for the locations you chose. That's my point exactly. I still havent seen any locally shot project that justifies the hype Nigerian producers and DOPs are giving the camera.
I know the possibilities of the camera and I havent seen anyone put the camera to the test , yet.

wow men that be expensive wow na how many ppl wud b able to afford it am an editor 2 on the island may b we can hook up lets c wat it can do

I think it's a good thing that the camera is available to hire in Nigeria

well.take a cue from the use of the " red one '' in jamie foxx's latest video " DIGITAL GIRL". thats whot happens when good equipment jams creative and efficient people, ciao

Afamdman, are u d onw who shot the gbonofeli feli video, not d dbanj one o.one remix lik that.well if you are.and the red one was used in that video, mhn.i dont riily think it was worth d effort o.just mi humble opinion,

red one  . cool, it was also used to film the district 9 movie. "THE EMBASSY" really did it justice in the vfx shots they worked on particularly the exoskeleton sequence. it really was of great help to them because they got to take out the chip and review it on a mac right after shootin on the set to see what worked and didnt.they did the ironman sequences too. look forward to workin with that someday.

@Seun it was shot with a sony Z1 dude didn't want us 2 shoot with d RED1 it would have been d ish. @Soji d jesse jagz was my first project with d RED so i was trying 2 be careful i don't mess it up but am sure with other projects we will do our best 2 push it.

ok.gd gd

I've seen the jobs that Naija's most respected DPs push out of the RED1, All notin they could not have done using a 3CCD cam. I think the owners really dont know how to make the most of it or the accompanying gear is still lacking. If my video is going to end up lookin like Essence's video what is the essence? Plus the trouble I am going to face in post. Guys give me a reason apart from "I don dey shoot with RED oo"

I personally agree with you, the Red can do far more better than that, but on the otherhand thts the first video tht Dj Tee shot with the Red, but when his other videos come out i'll let you know.
You can also check Omolara 'Be ike yours' its better but still not perfect.
I've shot some videos where by if you see the rushes (unedited clips) you'll be impressed, I hope they soon hit the screens.
On the Post production its no different from the normal editing,, almost all editing softwares can edit it.

My personal belief is that anything shot in a studio (especially the typical Naija videos where artistes dance in front of grafitti walls) CANNOT bring out the beauty of the large imaging chip of the RED. Any typical video camcorder would produce good enough images if graded well.
@Afamdman and Expensiv, impress people with nice exteriors with sweet depth of field and selective focus.

I undstd ur point of view, bt the thing is I'm not personally a director or DP, i jst rent out the red to interested parties, bt frm my little experience, the lighting(exposure) is very important when using the red one, especially while using it indoors.
Hopefully we'll soon gt there and knw hw to gt best results with the red.
Thanks for all the comments

I want you guys to please take note of the ariel commercial being broadcasted presently pls watch the grains and note that some red grains are actually meant to show while the ariel is being poured into the bowl, but the camera that was used couldn't achieve the depth of field required and they finally had no choice but to come for the 'Almighty RED ONE' ,, so watch out guys from abt this week you'll see a changed in the advert.

You guys shd pls check out my two new videos 'ADA OWERRI' by Clarence Peters and 'ONE BY ONE' by DJ Tee,,,,
yep we're definately gettin better, lol

Guys, we have these cameras available so call my colleague Bolatito also and she can sort you out. Her number is 08025704448. xpensiv
