Dave looks at the new Epic-M camera from Red Digital Cinema. Dave is just a little excited.
Peter Jackson’s upcoming film, The Hobbit will be shot with the RED EPIC-M. The EPIC-M is the latest in state of the art filming technology. Shooting in 5K, this brilliant machine features a smaller footprint than its predecessor, the RED ONE M-X. For those with a hefty $58,000 USD to spend, the package includes the body, a BOMB EVF, 5-inch touchscreen, batteries, chargers, four 128 GB SSD hard drives, a titanium PL mount and case. A short video of the camera in action can be seen below.

First, thanks for dnawirg additional attention to the NY Times article regarding food photography. As a foodie, photographer, and entrepreneur in the foodie social network space, I really appreciate your support.In building twiddish, the dish-by-dish restaurant review iPhone app and social network, I have spoken to a lot of restaurateurs and chefs and for the most part they have supported diners photographing their food for several reasons. First, user-generated dish reviews are very different than restaurant reviews as they force the diner to focus on the dish and only the dish. Restaurateurs and chefs appreciate this because the specificity lets them know exactly what they are doing right and what can be corrected. Further, the recognize that most diners are not as adventurous as foodies and photo-based dish reviews enable the average diner to feel more comfortable in trying a new dish, restaurant, or cuisines, which in turn helps to fill seats and create buzz at restaurants.Jonny
