  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Highest Red Reservation

I'm beginning to get worried now....:confused: I placed my order on Monday using paypal and yet have not heard from RED. Can I at least get an email indicating "Your order is being processed"
 
We are all waiting. I'm sure there is allot of work actually figuering out the serial numbers. What email came first when they all came at 6:01am monday morning... And the people that didn't get through but had emails in. where do they fall in line. So rest well the RED team will figure it all out in due time and we will all be very excited..
 
we're getting there! we really appreciate your patience... i know it is hard to wait!
 
Looks like I am the record holder for the moment :D
RED ONE Camera #1333 ||| RED 300mm f2.8 Lens #255

Congrats Nutman!!! If you did get the very last reservation, I'll buy you a RED tshirt or hat when they come out.

I feel that as adults we should actually be rewarded for our tardiness. :) ...except on shoot days.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I may have the highest score when the final tallies do come in. :( I made my reservation last night with just less than three hours to spare.

I just stumbled onto this site and the Red One in general only a couple days ago. I kept hearing people mention Red, but I never looked into it. I figured it was just another high-end camera outside my price range. I was in the market for something like the HD110, but then finally looked into the Red One and was completely blown away. Yeah, I know it's about $10k more, but I figure I can make that up rather quickly by pimping my services out. Then I'll have a camera for indie film work that beats the HD110 hands down.

What really impressed me about Red was not only the amazing deal it was, but the community and the team involved in making it. I come to this forum and I see a solid [future] user base and a team who interacts with them and takes their suggestions under consideration. That just really impressed me and I wanted in! So, I thought long and hard about it yesterday and made the plunge last night. Now I can't wait! :)

Sorry for the long post, but I thought I should introduce myself while bearing the bad news. I'm looking forward to getting to know this community a little better in the coming months. Oh, and if I have the highest score, what do I win? :p

ken, when i signed up for my reservation in the first round, i got it in about half an hour before they closed and then something like 50 more were processed after mine. so getting it in three hours ahead of closing is still prime time!

my second red reservation is numerologically perfect: #1248!

ooooo, mathematician's wet dream!
 
last fall i was trying to be the last reservation ... i waited till 11:56PM to fax ..
i received 1051 .. i know there's was a 1073... alot of #'s can go in 3hrs ....and of course the last 5min !!!

Interesting - I wonder how many others were in this boat?? Seeing as that your RED will not ship anytime soon, what are you going to use if an HD job pops up? I have had my HVX200 since March and it gets a fair workout.
 
I've got 1319

Haha... I can only make one decision at a time. Yesterday's was to pull the trigger on a Red One reservation. Today's is to figure out what to do in the meantime. ;) I'm assuming June would be the earliest my Red would be available, so I'll probably just end up getting the HD110 anyway and sell it if necessary (hopefully I won't have to) as my number gets closer to being called. I'm sure people will be posting here when they get their camera, so we should all have a pretty good idea of when our numbers are up.

Well in that case, I'm hoping for #24816. :D

Or how about #1232100? That's my current #^2
