  • 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 :)

Announcing RED RAVEN

We are checking into this to see if they need any help. I will always have a special place in my heart for Sony Vegas.. it is what I learned on when it was sonic foundry vegas and it does alot of things really great.
Much appreciated. This would be very important for us.
 
Very tempted to jump back in to the RED family. Was a early adopter of a RED ONE back in '07. Tried to keep up with all the Raven posts, but not sure I saw much about the DSMC² Base I/O V-Lock Expander. Is this a new product releasing with Raven? What basic I/O does it have; audio/XLR? SDI/HDMI?
 
Once again... if someone wouldn't rent a EPIC Dragon due to comparable framerates at 4k on the Raven... that person wouldn't likely rent a Weapon 6k or 8k either. The Weapon 6k is exactly the same frame rates as EPIC Dragon.

True, but Raven has Prores. Something Epic Dragon doesn't. And can auto-blackshade, which saves time. So for quick turnaround jobs, the $6,000 RAVEN may actually have a leg up on the $25,000 Epic Dragon.

Its a new world, and a new ecosystem, for sure.

I for one am jumping onto RAVEN myself (I placed a deposit within minutes of site going live). But RAVEN and Epic Dragon may at times (depending on the job) have more parity than one would think.

We are witnessing the Democratization of RED!

Yeah but Raven can't support PL mount lenses such as anamorphics... :-) I can always add ProRes, WiFi and even 3D LUTS to an EPIC Dragon... but a Raven is stuck in EF land with a more cropped sensor. The differentiation is in the ecosytem... not just the brain of a camera by itself. I'm also getting a Raven I might add.. but I think I have a good idea of what target democratic it goes for... mostly the producers/directors always calling me for a ridiculous low price... lol.

Listen, EPIC DRAGON is amazing. 6K, swappable mounts, swappable OLPFs, you can add Hotlink.

Its the bomb!!

Basically this with an integrated v-lock on the back.

Samir, Nick - Love it when people get fired up about the possibilities. We just make the tool, it is the people behind it that make the magic.

Sounds like the perfect solution for me.

I imagine around $2000-$2250.

I bet everyone would stop asking about it if you'd show us a cool picture :)
 
Congratulations.

Another nice disruption of the market. ... and my sleep.

Scarlet lead me to Epic to Dragon.
I fear that I will be doomed adding a Raven to my gear. But it is very tempting.

Very smart step.
 
and whats this about…"and more"???

The REDRAVEN Base I/O Package is ideal for run-and-gun applications. This package includes the REDRAVENBRAIN, DSMC2 Base I/O V-Lock Expander, DSMC2RED Touch 4.7" LCD, DSMC2 Universal Handle, a 120GB REDMINI-MAG, and more.
