    DESCRIPTION

    Panny Hire LLC, as always are one of the pioneers and proud to unveil the first RED Helium 8K cameras available for rental in Los Angeles, Hollywood, Burbank and North LA!

    The EPIC-W is part of the Helium and Weapon line-up; featuring a 8K RED Helium sensor, with everything else inside the camera being brand new and improved technology direct from the flagship RED Weapon range with Helium sensors. 

    The new 8K Helium sensor boasts 35.4 megapixels, which is 4 x the resolution of 4K and 17 x the resolution of HD! The Helium sensor offers 8K resolution, 16.5 stops of dynamic range and in a standard Super35 sensor size, so all of your lenses are supported without any vignetting!

    The Helium has improved low-light sensitivity and leverages lightning fast data rates of up to 275 MB/s, recording REDCODE RAW and 4K Apple ProRes simultaneously!

    We can supply the Helium with PL or EF lens mount, Titanium and PL Motion Mount (additional). 

    Supplied with the new MINI-MAG system as standard, which enables faster shooting with lower REDCODE compression. Also bundled with plenty of 512GB MINI-MAG SSD’s and a USB 3.0 MINI-MAG SSD reader for super-fast footage transfer! Double the speed of regular REDMAG’s!
