  • 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 :)

Why do we have a forum to discuss a camera we no absolutely nothing about except "pocket, professional" and "Scarlet". Endless conjecture with no new hints until NAB seems exceedingly bizarre. Jim has not issued a call for feature requests or idea or anything in like manner.

What we should be speculating about is which high profile filmmaker is going to shoot on a Scarlet prototype. I vote for Herzog.
 
sigh, okay, I'll bite, Neveldine and Taylor

Bizarre? Funny, I tend to think that lots of discussion is exactly what Red is after. I think it's called generating buzz.

I absolutely agree. Complete waste of time.

And I am not so sure about 'buzz' being always a good thing. It will create a lot of expectations that will have to be met or people will be disappointed (Segway, Windows Vista, Steorn, etc.).

Because RED's got 18 months of R&D to pay off and they need to make a lot of the opposite of scarlet.

it is how we while away the endless hours, while waiting for our cameras to be delivered...shouldn't #27 be out there shooting, instead of posting about how boring it is to post boring posts??

(how much wood could a woodchuck chuck....)
 
Hey Shawn, I think your point went completely un-noticed. Astounding...but not really.

Oh the irony... :whistling:
 
Is it cynical of me to suspect the magician's secret weapon, misdirection?

"What's with this sticky PL mount? What's with this audio hiss? What's with this rolling shutter? What's with this ..."

"Look, everybody: SCARLET!"
