This is a brand new product that will be shipping in quantities very soon.
I'm not sure what ebay has to do with it....

 

[Frank Weeks]

Interesting. The price is certainly reasonable.

 

[Gunleik Groven]

Looks good!

Will this disable the SDI's?

I believe that currently any HDMI device plugged in disables SDI- this is in camera firmware has nothing to do with the monitor/EVF

That's the Cineroid EVF. (Let me google that for you) I pre-ordered one at Hotrodcameras.com as a backup for my Red EVF more than a week ago. The top of the line version is only $799 from HRC.

I think it's made in Korea - and HRC is the only US distributor taking orders at this time as far as I know.

Well you don't know much do you Dan:hand:
The $700 price is for non loop through unit and I assume the redusers will want one they could get the signal out as well.
FYI there is no distributor for this product- they are a direct sales company.
They give quantity discount so the more I order the lower the price will get.
I've championed this product and gave them my input (although their management is all electronic engineers so they know their business) so they will give me a shot at the first batch. These will sell out until the competition from Zacuto and RR will hit the streets so there will be a shortage for about 3-4 more months.
I decided to give redusers heads up first since I know how the EVF is missed here.
Obviously I have a good relation with them since I have now the only unit in the country and maybe the world and they trusted me with it to test it and demo around town. I've taken it to Panavision, Otto and few other big rental facilities and the response was very encouraging. Orders pending.
This is a very well made and thought through product and should serve the Red community very well:iagree:
BTW I'm about done with the wireless- video coming up.
parts are being machined. will get them back before the end of the year.


Dan please stay on your own thread from now on- I appreciate input not flame wars:nonod:
Let's keep this forum professional and informative for all

This is my last post in one of your threads EVER - but I will take this excerpt direct from the site I ordered mine from just to show you that YOU are the one who needs to do your research before you try submarining other people's efforts:

Quoted directly from Hot Rod Cameras where I ordered:
"This is a professional grade product which features such important features like Peaking/Focus Assist, Image Flip, Monochrome Viewing, Underscan, Pixel to Pixel mapping, diopter adjustment and HDMI loop through."

as seen Here:
http://www.hotrodcameras.com/product/cineroid-hd-evf/

an eyepiece chamois does not make it a new product.

Thanks Jacek. Looks like a nice cheaper option for Scarlet down the road too.
Can it display the Red data info too, or just the video image?

You beat me to it. Jacek? Red Data info?

 

[Larry McKee]

No RED data, just the time code and clip number. But, man, does it have a big image. And is very light. I don't miss my RED EVF at all. Does it have the same resolution? Oh, heck, no. But, I did several hours of hand held a couple of days ago and the weight difference was huge. It does have peaking, so that helps if you are pulling your own focus. The 1:1 zoom in feature helps a lot, as well.

Thanks for the feedback Larry. Seem like a nice economical option for a Scarlet.

I would be interested in this if it were HD-SDI. HDMI just has not been that great of a connector day in and day out on set ...

Agree, they are delicate and extremely sensitive to any contamination. At least with the newer locking variety they are more secure.
