I've read a lot of stuff on the web in my efforts to educate myself about the Red One digital cinema camera's new approach to motion picture image capture and its workflow. Below are some of the better resources I've encountered. If I've left off something helpful, let me know in the comments.

3rd PARTY ACCESSORIES
Some might ask why this site is posting about Red, considering it is, for many readers, a high-ticket item (especially when you add in the cost of lenses, support, etc.). My answer is that this is a site that's devoted to all forms of maverick filmmaking, including the invention of maverick filmmaking tools. By this standard, Red certainly qualifies.
