This past June, Esquire magazine did a “photoshoot” with Megan Fox via the Red One camera. Instead of a traditional still-camera, they opted to shoot motion video in incredible hi-res and pull their cover image from the footage. Well some months later, they’re upping the ante’ using Red’s newest baby –

The photographer-director grabbed the photos for our June issue — at four times the resolution of high-def — from that mouth-watering video a couple million people happened to notice. The camera folks from Red noticed, too.

“I had a feeling since the Megan Fox experience turned out to be so incredible, that the combination of Greg Williams and Esquire would be the perfect platform to reveal our next-generation equipment for the first time,” says Jarred Land, who holds the enviable title of Fire Chief at Red.

Having finished a prototype just two days before this summer’s scheduled shoot with Esquire’s Sexiest Woman Alive 2009, Land hand-delivered to Williams the first-ever RedOne camera outfitted with the Epic 5K Mysterium-X Sensor. You know, just a couple of tens of thousands of dollars worth of the world’s most advanced photographic equipment in your carry-on.

Is it wrong that what gets me all hot-and-bothered isn’t Megan Fox but the thoughts of this imminent evolution in video technology? Don’t answer that.
