OK. Here is the revised schedule. IT IS STILL TENTATIVE (as required by law). I have recently learned how many things can go wrong at the 11th hour so I am still a bit gun-shy about committing to this schedule 100%. This is the timeline we have in-house and everyone, including all of our suppliers, is now committed to do everything we can to make it happen. I have stated before that the 1st production cameras will NOT be fully feature enabled. I need a few more days to post that schedule.

If anyone who has a reservation wants to wait to receive their cameras when all features are enabled, we will hold their camera aside until that time. They will NOT lose their serial number. If anyone wants to cancel their reservation for any reason, we will refund their deposit by the schedule I posted last week.

Cameras for movie production- now to July 30th. These cameras will have limited features. Not enough for production cameras but enough to shoot a major motion picture. We will get valuable "field test" information from these projects.

Production camera schedule:
Serial numbers 1 (mine)-50 August 30th (50 units)
Serial numbers 51-100 September 15th (50 units)
Serial numbers 101-300 October 10th (200 units)
Serial numbers 301- 700 November 10th (400 units)
Serial numbers 701- 1200 December 10th (500 units)
Serial numbers 1201- 1700 January 10th (500 units)
Serial numbers 1701- 2200 February 10th (500 units)
Serial numbers 2201- 2700 March 10th (500 units)
Serial numbers 2701- 3400 April 10th (700 units)
Serial numbers 3401- 4100 May 10th (700 units)

We recognize that this delay is not what anyone voted for. We are doing our best and appreciate everyone's patience.

Thanks Jim, looking forward to November!!! If it's later it's later I'm sure everyone will forget any delay once they have it in their hands
 
Ooh! Shawn likes! Does "Serial numbers 1 (mine)-50 August 30th (50 units)" mean I can expect mine mid-August (since I'm mid way through that range) or that you'll be releasing all 50 as a batch on August30th?
 
4100 cameras have been reserved? Damn.

Here's to hoping everything goes as planned (from now on).
 
How are we even to know what number we are if we weren't one of the initial 1,500 reservations? I'm really not sure where I stand with that.
 
November 10th! Christmas is coming early this year!

I love it!

Looks like at the least, it means you'll be getting your camera sometime in 2008.
 
Thanks Jim

Could you tell us if the board's being fixed?
And I seconded Shawn's question as I'm #68, so will I get mine at the start of September?
 
Daily shipments or lump shipments on the day.

Jim:

First of all thanks, second, I'm number 206 with a customer wanting to shoot in October, will cameras be built and shipped on a daily basis i.e 10 or so a day as you assemble/test or will you get 200 on a pallet October 10 to ship all at once? In other words if all goes to plan (and I am on board with the idea that anything can change) could 206 ship late September as cameras are shipped throughout the month?
 
I was hoping my RedOne Sundance debut was still possible this year, but guess what... I'm glad we know now, even though as required by law, you still are not a 100% committed to it. Thanks all the same, Jim. Appreciate the heads up.
 
Good question.

Great news Jim,
I can now go off for a few weeks with our new baby, who is due next week, and not have to check in to this damn site every few hours. Looks like it will be a the new year till mine arrives so I can just settle down to some pram pushing around the park.
Well done Red team for a fantastic effort.
regards Johann
 
Jim, can I have your camera if this schedule slips? This would be great motivation to make it happen! ;)
 
Jim

As most of us have stated in past posts. Getting it right up front is critical for both the believers and the sceptics.

After waiting 3 decades for a camera with these capibilities, I'm just happy to know that it's within arms reach.

Thanks for being up front with us. I hope that the shift at Oakley will mean even more of your focus can be spent on the Red One.

Let the revolution continue!

Great news; thanks Jim.

I just have a very long order number so how do we relate to the serial numbers Jim has posted.
 
Allright. Me being somewhere in the 4000 numbers means I get to experience each one of your "birthday"s before I get my present!
