Definition
The RED Pro Primes are a series of high-quality cinema lenses specifically developed for professional film productions. These prime lenses are characterized by their exceptional optical quality, consistent color reproduction, and robust construction. The lens series includes various focal lengths from 18mm to 300mm and was developed in collaboration with renowned optics manufacturers to meet the highest demands of cinematography.
The RED Pro Primes offer a consistently high aperture from T1.8 to T2.9 depending on the focal length and deliver a characteristic image aesthetic with smooth bokeh and natural contrast distribution. All lenses feature standardized gear rings for follow focus systems and uniform front diameters for matte box systems.
Practical Application
RED Pro Primes are primarily used in high-end film productions, commercials, and premium television productions. Their optical consistency allows cinematographers to switch between different focal lengths without requiring extensive color correction in post-production. The precise mechanical construction ensures repeatable focus and aperture settings, enabling precise work during complex camera movements and focus pulls.
