  • 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 :)

5K Epic

That was a nice bait and switch for the competition.

"Hey Sony et al, look over here at the "Scarlet""
<<BANG!>>
::bashes them on the head with Epic Proportions while they're not looking::

That's an awesome strategy! Go TEAM RED!

downloading the pdf

downloading the pdf

Hello

if you're on a Mac and having trouble downloading the NAB pdf (getting a corrupted download when safari fails after a few Kb...) try with this app :

http://www.igetter.net/

it's a cool shareware (with demo mode to try it out) and worked perfectly well here to download that pdf :sorcerer:

the pdf doesn't contain much more info than what is on the website about EPIC, SCARLET, RED-RAY and lenses, but has some nice rendered images of all products, including RED one which is (of course) still part of their product line.

PS : just paste the pdf URL into igetter (http://www.red.com/skin/img/nab_2008/nab2008.pdf)
 
I want to know what the new sensor can do. more DR ? also it would be a shame if EPIC was double the cost of RED ONE. we have to reserve judgement until we hear pricing. sounds like EPIC is RED TWO. now that they've gained all the knowledge from RED ONE they can apply it to getting a better sensor , shaving weight off the camera and fixing the bits we complain about. would be nice to see 15 stops of DR from epic , god this doesn't answer my questions it just raises a million more to drive me insane
 
40k , we're not in kansas anymore , thats dissapointing. with those numbers we're back in sony pricing land. even if it is a 5k camera. thats way out of my budget. if the new sensor doesn't have at least 15 stops of DR this won't fly, resolution isn't everything
 
From Last page of the PDF (finally got it to work :-)

DIGITALLY OPTIMIZED PL MOUNT CINEMA LENSES. 18-85MM T2.9 ZOOM • 25MM T1.9 • 35MM T1.9 • 50MM T1.9 • 85MM T1.9 • 100MM T1.9 • 300MM T2.9 COMING IN THE SECOND WAVE... 15MM T2.8 • 18MM T1.9

sure, but...

1. we don't know if this means they'll discontinue the RED ONE at $17,500
2. the RED ONEs that get traded in may get refurbished and sold for $10,000
3. the Scarlet is affordable, and 3k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
SCARLET 100 MB/SEC REDCODE
EPIC 100 MB/SEC REDCODE
RED ONE 36 MB/SEC REDCODE*

Has the Red One been nerfed?
Why is Red One only 36?
Can it be upgrased to 100 MB/SEC?

What other 5K cameras are out there for $40,000? Hmmm...maybe none? That $40,000 figure sounds a bit rounded off to me so is probably unlikely - I'd guess at twice what the Red One is. If you're on a budget the Scarlet is a great option.
 
hmmm ... interesting

hmmm ... interesting

The statement '... FULLY UPGRADABLE SENSOR, BODY, BOARDS AND MOUNT ...' is present in the 5K EPIC narrative; fine, ok, good ... as expected.

For some reason NOT present for the 4K RED ONE narrative ... used to be no ?!

Does this mean that the upgrade path is essentially EPIC only :blush: ?
I guess it will depend on costs ...
 
I want 35mm DOF , Scarlet is lovely. course it will have the new sensor and all that brings. it really is an amazing piece of kit. and about 20 times less for what most other 2/3 sensors cost. indies will love it they could buy two for the same price as a hvx200. I'm sure the lens will be top notch too. course we're all going to want epic 5k, although at this point 4k is enough, its the latitude/DR I want to see increase to at least 15 stops. I like the fact they've shaved 3lbs off the camera with Epic. 100fps at 5k is pretty killer too. I think its quite possible EPIC will be the final nail in films coffin. not that I hate film. I love it. its got a beauty all its own. its just too damn expensive for most of us mortals
 
Same error for me, Adam. Looks like it's downloading only a small fraction of the file before giving up - the first try I got about 700k and the second time 200k. The whole file's 700mb so that's not going to work :-(.

And I can't get to any of the other pages, either - could some kind soul share the details?

D

I finally got the page up and it was a RED spider. Very funny.

Good luck site will be packed today. Hopefully the server won't crash and burn.
