Oh my god. I completely forgot... Everyone's been so wrapped up in the 1st 25.
 
26-50 will be delivered tomorrow (Friday the 7th). 51-100 will be delivered from Sept. 22-25th.

This is wonderful news!

Thanks my fiancé... :) It seems our 1st marriage is closer. October 10th, right? I hope to have it for my birthday seven days away from there. Actually, this will be my personal camera, no rentals at all! At least, since my official 2nd one. 31 days later, I hope.
 
I probably won't get an answer.. but since you're rolling out 51-100 over the course of three days.. I wonder what RED will do for later orders where they're rolling out 400 new cams in one chunk.. will the release of 400 cameras in November be stretched out by a few days or weeks?

I'm number 75. So I can pick it up as early as Sept. 22 or as late as Sept. 25th, right. I'm LA local and will be right down to the wire on a project shooting the first week in October which I intend to shoot on RED.
thanks.

good question doondoon

good question doondoon

I just assumed being #98 my day is the 25th. but I would love to know....



phew, I'm getting kinda dizzy all of the sudden. this is just FAR TOO REAL!





thanks again, and again, and again, to Jim, your clear intent and vision, and the whole red team for everything the have done and will continue to do for all of us.
 
Ooooohhhh..... what about the next 100 after Sept. 22-25??? I'm like a crack fiend lookin for my Red 187 fix!! :)

It's really hard containing the excitement!
 
We are doing the best we can... we have some supplier issues that are causing us grief but we are working around the issues. Seems like we get a new surprise everyday.

Jim
 
The more material and outside process suppliers that one has just raises the possibility that one or more of them will manage to screw up even the best laid plans. Its just the nature of a manufacturing endeavor and no surprise at all. I am certain that RED and everyone involved is doing their best.

Thanks Jim for the update.

Dumb question perhaps...

How does the Red get to us? Or do we go to it? (I'm UK based)

If it's shipped to us, any chance of getting it shipped within a Peli Case (like the few I saw in the "unwrap" photos with laser cut padding, that were blow-torch branded)??

Not that I don't trust carriers - it's that I just don't trust them. I've lost $10K's worth of kit in transit mainly through damage. If the carrier wrecks my Red, the last thing I need is to go to the end of the order line after the insurance company pays up.

And even if I hop on a plane, with the security issues these days, it'll have to go in the hold (where it's carefully stowed by monkeys). Do we need to worry about X-Ray machines causing damage?

Curiously the Red camera resembles a "Hollywood" suitcase bomb... Air travel is just going to be fun.

No worries. RED is so tough they just slap a FEDEX label on one side of the body and sticker on the other side that says "Do Your Worst".
