  • 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 :)

CINEMA Scarlet at CINEgear

It looked to me that the 'hunting for focus' aspect was just to set focal points. Once they were set, each time he hit the shutter, the rack was fast and precise.
 
It used to be 2750 for the brain only (and 950 for the primes). But since, the camera have gotten HDRx which approximately is 1000 dollars more. So my estimated guess would be 3750 as of now. But things might change.

HDRx is well worth the extra grand or so, from what I've seen. Coupled with some mini primes... this is getting exciting again.
 
What mount options will the camera have? What sort of lenses are most desireable for use with the C Scarlet? Thanks.

Last official notice was "Mini-RED Mount (RED's proprietary mount for their "Mini Primes), B4 Mount, C-Mount"

It should take the same interchangeable lens mounts as Epic. Arri PL mount should be an option too.

I hope they have designed the mini-PL mount so that C-mount lenses can be adapted with a screw on flange.
 
Jim already reported that there was a production and supply issue with Scarlet fixed lens in Japan.

Maybe it's a time right now that RED turned its eyes to Germany for a solution that is

IMS (Interchangeable Mount System) from P+S Technik from München's Ottobrunn suburbs...

Why?

It can really enable Scarlet to use many sort of lenses starting with almost all types of still photo glass, then PL S16mm (also S35mm) lenses, C mount lenses,

and with adaptor even the latest ENG lenses (Canon HJ15ex8.5B KRSE-V portable HD zoom lens with a built-in Optical Image Stabilizer...).

Then Scarlet Interchangeable could be really sort of best digital HD or sweet little super 16mm camera for many kids, enthusiasts and also professionals...

Latest blockbuster hit like a "Super 8" as a movie story or an idea would look like a bad joke in that case...

Only digital acquisition is a future...

RED could sell millions of this Scarlet cameras for sure...

With a great hope that RED is listening in this case...!!!???...

A noble idea, though I think RED has made it pretty clear they're really only interested in catering to the professional market at this point. I imagine they've explored all manufacturing options possible to maintain their target price point.
 
Yeah, as cheap as the body is, all the accessories are going to run up the price ( at least for me and I think most) even at it's cheapest working configuration, I think it will only be affordable for pros, maybe some rich enthusiests. Man I can't wait to have my dslr take pics at a shoot instead of video like it should! Can't wait for this thing to come out!
 
I wonder if they'll offer a package like they do with the EPIC? At least with the LCD, REDmote, etc. Probably no SSD's or anything. Just the essentials for it to operate.
