Panasonic is the easiest of those. The Varicam has been used on a bunch of stuff. https://pro-av.panasonic.net/en/cinema_camera_varicam_eva/shot_on/ As far as Canon... https://shotonwhat.com/cameras/canon-eos-c500-camera https://shotonwhat.com/cameras/canon-eos-c300-camera Keep in mind that the C500 series and C300 series weren't the A camera on most/all of the things listed, but neither was the RED on several of the films that you called out. I doubt that Fuji cameras have been used on a lot of major Hollywood productions. To the best of my knowledge, Fuji don't make ANY cinema cameras. I'd be shocked, though, if Fuji's excellent cinema lenses hadn't made their way into at least a handful. Anyway. Take a deep breath. In the end, it doesn't matter even a little bit to any of us if NIkon retire the RED brand - not unless you own stock in Nikon and are worried about it would do to your investment. 😉 FWIW, the most typical/obvious thing here is that Nikon will continue to operate RED as a separate business unit for a time, likely attaching Nikon to the RED name somehow - "RED by Nikon" or "Nikon RED" or something like that. Eventually, the integration will get tighter and current RED engineers will be replaced by Nikon engineers and the naming will change - "The Nikon RED Z1" or something like that. Eventually, RED will look just like any other business unit of Nikon, but continue to make cinema-focused cameras and nobody will care much about whether they keep or lose the name. -
RED wil be integrated and the brand will disappear, friend. Don't be gullible. That's how Japanese companies go about these things. You may like it no, but that's the way it works. NIKON just fortified their brand with some cool video features. They don't NEED Red. Don't believe me? The Chief Design Officer at RED for 18 years just resigned. He knows practically everyone will be let go once Nikon absorbs their tech-savvy and slowly let the RED brand rot. https://www.newsshooter.com/2024/04/16/matthew-tremblay-chief-design-officer-red-digital-cinema-resigns/ As I said, Nikon has a long history as a brand and wants to capitalize on a new market (deep pocket influencers and some cinema buffs). -
What a bunch of non sense from people like you. Nikon has their own tech, the Z9 is superior to the Sony Burano 30k camera!!! They could build a Burano killer tomorrow with the z9 internals, they don't absolutely need RED tech if they wanted to go into the video camera world. But can you show me any of Canon, Panasonic or Fuji with even a tenth of that resumé https://www.red.com/shot-on-red. Please show us, I am sure Canon has be used on the likes of blockbusters like Dr strange, Spiderman, Aquaman, Guardian of the Galaxy, The Suicide SQUAD, The flash and some of the biggest TV shows like the Witcher etc etc. I will wait, to think their are some people who think a company will throw away such a legacy is just dumb. If you don't even know the basic of branding, why Honda who sells Civics, invested billions on an F1 engine, or Renaud doing the same while they sell Clio's. The people from Nikon have said not to expect anything Tomorrow, not because imbecile are going to say they will kill RED, but because it takes time. RED just released a 8k 120fps global shutter camera, vista vision camera. What do you think, they are selling Canon rebel 50, you think release cameras every six months. -

I hope they bring a few of the software features to the RS 1" 360 camera. It looks like the X4 has improved details over the 1", but none of it looked like enough that I'd run out to spend a few hundred bucks on yet another camera, especially since the 1" is still better in low light. Most of the other stuff that I saw in comparisons seemed like it would be solved by tweaking levels or contrast in post. If selfie sticks weren't so universally looked down on, Insta360's combo of 360 camera + great studio software should make them the darlings of the vlog community. Not much need to even pay any attention to where the camera is or if you're in frame - and if something interesting happens, no need to do anything with the camera. Just comment on it so you know when to turn the automatic tracker off in post. 🙂 -

...with a lot of makeup, lighting, and color correction. Definitely true, which is why I also said that I don't believe any mainstream brand is objectively better than others. Most of the people posting here have said that in one way or another.
