Any reason you are going for the red instead of using something more affordable like a 5D mkII?

Quality. We want to make something that looks stunning and as great as the 5D is for online its only when you directly compare it to higer end Red, Arri ect... that you see its short fulls.
2k plus will give so much more control of the image, especially in post & grading.
It's a good point though and we did have the conversation, it comes down to making something cinematic so we don't want cheap to effect quality.
Plus going for a slightly older models like the Red One's arn't a huge jump in costs.

Fair enough. Personally I think the 5d does a stellar job, the last 3 episodes of House in HD looked better than 99% of other TV shows out there. The director on the 5D: https://twitter.com/#!/GregYaitanes/status/21834533316

True
That it does look good but don't forget its a 5D sitting behind some tasty Canon prime's and L series lens
Well be using the same type of lenses but straight onto a Red - if you liked what they achieved with house then your going to love what we do with the Western.
