I Think I Made the Right Choice

[danbrazda]

After witnessing everything at NAB first hand and having a long flight to re-visit everything in my mind.... Let's just say, I am cautiously optimistic to be #3203 on the RedOne list. This still seems to be the camera that closest fits my criteria. Unless I hear more than I already have about the EPIC- count me out. Unless the Scarlett comes out with either the most kick ass fixed lens in existence or inter-changeable lenses- count me out. Time will tell.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE... just don't slow the progress of the RedOne's potential. Only thing lacking for me right now with RedOne is 120+ fps at 4K, Compact Flash Media to get more affordable and Apple to step up and seamlessly integrate all that RED has to offer in the 4K spectrum. Only one of these issues is really needed of the RED team. Looking forward to Build 16+ and Jim to get some really good dirt on Steve Jobs for blackmail purposes.

hey Dan, we're all leaping into the same faith pool but as we hear from more and more excited owners, faith turns to fact. I'm positive we are all doing the right thing.

Did you just place you order or was it existing? I thought the order tally was higher than that.

cheers,
jim

Put in my deposit about 2 months ago to become #3203.

Please elaborate- I have no idea what you are talking about. My post reflected what I and MANY others I talked to at NAB felt- We are all still RED fans we just want to emphasize how important it is to us (who have actually placed a deposit on a camera and/or fully purchased one) that the RedOne remains top priority.

By the way, Pawel- if you have something useful or constructive to post, please do not hesitate to do so.

Hey guys im a long time reader, first time poster!

I really don't know what all the fuss is about. To me they all the cameras have very different markets. Based on what I saw at NAB I went straight ahead and ordered my RED One. And with the trade in that Jim is offering towards the Epic I have absolutely no regrets about my decision. On any level we should count ourselves lucky that we are inline for a now proven 4k camera for $17500, this is still a ridiculous bargain if I ever saw one.
