I was playing with the new sony FS5 tonight and was wondering what people are using on their M15's. I assumed that it is mostly Red EPIC / Dragons but would love to hear from anyone who is willing to share their setup! BTW - FS5 is an awesome little camera, Sony's pro camera team is killing it!

We make sure to keep our kit camera-agnostic, but 98% of it ends up being RED. We have a Scarlet Dragon in house, and when possible make sure that all our accessories and cables will work with other camera packages when the client calls for it. I make sure the client knows we can shoot on almost anything they want, but for whatever reason it usually ends up being RED.
Red Dragon PL Mount 95% of the time. Alexa Mini PL Mount is gaining popularity. On the Alta our number one request is for PL Mount Heavier Lenses (currently flying lighter Canon Mount). So, moving to a Carbon Weapon when available.
2x Dragons, 1x Mini, 1x Weapon, 2x BM4k, 2x Ursa's - most our clients are using the Red more than Mini (maybe when raw comes out that will change but the VV8K will change that again so they can match up to the Alexa 65)
Used to fly the Red a lot but since the Mini came out, this has been the most asked for camera by a country mile.
