Brand New, Leica M Noctilux 50mm F0.95. We bought this for our film but the aerial shots are going to be so expensive we have to let this baby go.

Lowered to $9500 Free overnight Shipping in USA

really good deal on this! i use this on film and at f.95 it's pretty much ridiculous on a rangefinder. always stop it down a bit. wildly fast and insane subject isolation!

Thanks, it's an amazing lens and on a camera like our red epic it yields insane results. A fellow red owner made this at 120fps..just crazy

I really don't want to let her go but we got the quote back for the aerial shots on our film and its $12k-15k a day.

What a stunning lens!

Aerials are never cheap (we had fun getting a ship to the middle of the Canning Stock Route). However, you may want to consider grabbing a few with this

Scott,

Thanks for the video, haven't seen that one before. We have a few shots we will be using RC helicopters but a fewer of the higher altitude shots require a full size helicopter. My father runs a helicopter company, but they can't hold the heavy gyro stabilization balls on the nose.

Thats for sure, especially with some of the helicopter-lapse shots we have planned, need it as stable as possible.

Have you thought about the Kenyon Labs gyros? I have never used them for video; but I have the 4x4 and 8x8 I use for still aerials with a Pentax 645D and 35mm to 300mm lenses. My shots wouldn't have been possible without them. I even use them handheld on the ground. 40mp is demanding and sometimes a tripod gets in the way when you are working on foot around elephants...

I would bet two or three of the KS-12's would suit you perfectly, the rent them too.

It will work for certain shots, and we will be using them for some boat-lapses to keep it as still as possible. But for the looking down and forward and ones that are zoomed in a lot the nose mount systems are the best. We will be using the GSS C520 for those type of shots. Otherwise the RC hell will do great, especially for work in tight canyons where it would be dangerous for a full size rig.

gyroscope stabilization systems for shooting aerials, takes out the bumps and jitters from the heli to get smooth movements
