Any chance to see the back ports of the 8x fixed?

Fair trade.

Ba-Dum, CRASH!

(Sorry.)

So I have a couple questions, Jarred. Does the fixed zoom look the same as the mini primes, except it zooms and isn't as fast? (T2.6, right?) Or are the mini-primes sharper and less distortiony and stuff? Are you planning on releasing a mini-zoom for the interchangeable version? I'm inclined towards the fixed, but I feel like the extra stop-and-a-half-or-so would come in really handy sometimes. But the fixed is such a beautiful complete package. Man. Hard decision.

I can't get over how freaking cheap it is. There's no way anyone whining about the cost isn't a troll.

Is #21, "240 - 8000 ISO?"

I seriously doubt that quality of the fixed lens will equal that of the mini primes. In fact I'm certain they won't.

Zoom lenses generally cannot compete with the quality a prime lens delivers. Prime lenses are optimised for a specific focal length, and don't have the optical issues a zoom lens has to deal with. Generally prime lenses are sharper at their given focal length, have greater contrast and suffer less from chromatic aberration. It varies from lens to lens, but I'm betting that will be the case with the new Red branded lenses.

Jarred has been bigging up these mini primes, so I expect they'll be great in terms of image quality, and a major reason to go interchangable over fixed for the more serious user.

Jarred, Did you lose a bet with Jim and end up getting stuck answering these thousands of questions?

Then you had the second post of the week.

Lens is F2.4, T2.6. (And Incredible)

Jarred,

Is it possible to disclose the range of the 8x? ??mm - ??mm

Or is this item 21? Or you can't say for some competitive reason?

Hey at least this time around its all good feedback and not as much bitching and whining as last month. Looks like you lucked out Jarred.

I had a question and it looks like it got lost in the shuffle, but I was really wondering if Redcode 100 would work on the current Red-Drives? Also was wondering if you guys had some sort of estimated price for the 1.8" SSDs?

Sorry for the redundancy, just really curious.

I am too and agree, but probably not in the way you mean ;) . She'll mostly be in front of it.
