Most of the beauty in these videos comes from the lenses, directing, and colors. RED cameras are great don’t get me wrong but there is a lot more going on than just pixel resolution. It’s really easy to take shitty images with a Helium. Just until this year the 2.5k Arri Alexa was industry standard, and RED has had a 4K camera dating back to the RED One in 2007. The Alexa Classic was released in 2010. They had to compete with RED taking over the 35mm film world, but then totally blew it out of the water. Why? Because their colors were better, cameras were bulletproof and much more flexible. DP/director will always choose camera based on color science first, dynamic range and sensor size second, flexibility third and resolution last. The glass they use can sometimes rival the cost of the camera by several times.

Basically what I’m trying to say is looking at these videos you aren’t looking at the camera, you are looking at the lenses, color grade, and directing and the camera was just a capture tool and is a very limited role.

Oh most definitely, I only say #goRED for vogue, but realistically for the price I would more than likely go for a high-quality DSLR any day. REDs have their perks but when it comes to any video format it has some huge disadvantages to it. But in retrospect REDs are ahead of their game; of course, wouldn't mind owning one lowkey for bragging rights but really just to toil with. But no, yea, absolutely agree. Basically anyone who can tell a narrative through their composition, framework, and more importantly their subject, is a real photographer, moderately. Any(photographer)one who holds one camera against another in terms of quality doesn't actually look through the viewfinder (metaphorically speaking).

But anyways, hitting different aspects of film on my part, tl;dr most definitely agreed
