  • 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 Scarlet-W

COUNT ME IN... Just sold my Epic MX today. Perfect timing RED. I'm stoked about this.
 
Totally understand Brent... I just was really enamored with how the V-Lock expander integrated the battery back as part of the expander. It definitely saved on size and weight that way... A GM version would be perfect for my gimbal setup for example, but I get it if GM isn't part of Red's designs..

Yeah, I know. It is the reason we opened up third-party dev of hardware for DSMC2 line, so for more options for people, if not RED.
 
This hits the spot for many one man operators / small production companies. Pro res, HDMI out, audio in etc. Very versatile camera with the option to shoot 5K REDCODE RAW. Wow. This will get a ton more people into the ecosystem. I imagine this moment in time was high on the list for RED. Meanwhile Terry V is drowning his sorrows at Beehans :-)
 
+1. I think it's a great idea to extend the package deal to all existing owners. Some will take it as their second/ back up unit. Some may not have the resources to upgrade/ trade in to Weapon MG but don't mind dropping 12K to have a second unit. Lot of merit in your suggestion Alex. It will add to the overall volume of sale. A little holiday cheer for all Red owners.

Jarred promised a special deal for SCARLET DRAGON folks long ago, this is us keeping our promise to them.

whenever i see HDMI on some product i just go grhhhh.I would rather have 2nd SDI instead of HDMI.And i think most of us do.
Why not making only one input for timecode? (like Redvolt Expander)
DSMC² BASE I/O V-LOCK EXPANDER 1900$
DSMC² BASE EXPANDER 1750$
New Expander certainly voids previous one.Why should i pay 1750$ instead of having one with the Vlock module for 150$ more?

Don't worry Kemalettin.. We hear that alot. Some people just don't like HDMI ports. But like it or not, Most of our customers use them. We see the logs from all the cameras back to the RED ONE that we get back for upgrades, and we can see the ratio of what ports get used the most... hence.. why there is an HDMI port.

im with you, id rather get a few v-mounts and keep it one tight module.

More flexibility as you can use any module on back, not just V-Lock

Weight wise is this the same as the Raven with identical accessories/modules or slightly heavier due to interchangeable mounts? If so, how much heavier?

Not quite as light as RAVEN, the interchangeable mount and underlying mechanicals make it so.
 
Sorry if this has already been addressed, but will there ever be any Scarlet MX cameras sold as BT?
 
On nofilmschool it's written 4.5k FF up to 120fps, is it right? I think it's a mistake. Though is it possible to shoot 4.5kFF 100fps 12:1?

Sam, official specs here.

EDIT: Joe at NFS fixed on his end

Oh cool - is the V-Lock module on the red store? How much is that?!

Posted earlier in this thread the three new accessories that went live for a la carte. Before, only part of RAVEN bundles...

There are benefits to EACH of the expander options. For me, I may be keeping one of each on hand, takes about 30 seconds to change and radically changes the footprint, and options the camera offers. I'd say, however, 80% of the time I'll be rocking the Redvolt expander as my main configuration... The new V-Lock expander is a very nice new offering as well that I think I need to try in my Ronin setup ASAP as the Weapon is so light, I need a little more back weight to offset the lens/mattebox in the front.

Gottcha, sorry I meant what's the V-mount attachment we'd need for the DSMC² BASE EXPANDER? To make it V-Mountable?

thanks!
