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 :)
I've been crunching numbers and playing around on paper and the redvolts look to be a poor investment (per wh). How are you powering your epic on a gimbal system and what brackets/mounts did you have to get to do it?Thanks so much for your help.. RED could greatly benefit for a concise wiki...
The new firmware's is out but no changes fps. Looks like if you want Red One features in scarlet, you'll just have to get a red one.
Lots of other goodies though. I know many of you had your fingers crossed... No dice.
I'm new to the red world and did lots of calculations to stretch my dollar as far at it can go.
I figured it would be good karma to share some (if not all) of these calculations.
Here's a quick price/gig comparison for red Mags.

I see lots of eBay™ listings for arms that seem to be the same (construction wise) at the $200+ arms I see at local film supply stores.

Is the order of magnitude difference in price worth the value? Does anyone...
I'm looking for a universal battery mount. Do I have to go with this or will the Red backpack plate work?
-edit-
Oh, jebus - the required mounting pate is $1,200. Never mind. Looks like I'll be going 3rd party.
WTB: Scarlet kit.
That being said, I've seen lots of scarlet posts on here that end up with frustrated and offended sellers. Please keep in mind what the buyer has in mind.
From what I've read, to properly transfer the ownership to a new person, you have to pay RED $750 plus a $100-$500...
I, just like everyone else enjoy silky smooth slowmo, but in a narrative how often do you guys need to overcrank the footage? And what do you normally go up to? 48, 60, 120?
