Our body is full of " RED Blood " and little Hurts are OK.
No Pain no Gain. May I ask all RED ones owners / holders that why we need Perfect ? There were NO PERFECT things in the world.

Now, that´s the right attitude !!
 
Jim you are great communicator and you are making great camera! Getting camera better from time to time is great as well. Thanks to you and your RED team.
 
Good luck Jim, good luck Red team.

And wack out a 24 - 6000fps camera in a year or 2;>
 
Core Values

Core Values

What impresses me most--and gives me the most confidence in RED is, ultimately, the persevering commitment to the company's core values.

Watching the team go through the "ride" has been encouraging: The ride for them has gotten dicey, challenging, lots of sleepless nights and frayed nerves, problems with the cameras, restless natives and impressive opposition from big boys, tension, shipping hiccups, and who knows what else we don't see.

But through it all, it seems the core values seem to be stubbornly adhered to and the team seems (ultimately) unaffected. This is a company who knows who they are, and what they're about, and can maintain that in a fairly open relationship with the customer base. That, y'all, is very hard to do, and that separates the men from the boys.

This is what keeps me unworried though the process. Imperfect? Sure. But there is no perfect in the tech industry.

Cutting edge must keep cutting. When it stops, it's just a bleeding heart.
 
What easy battles are worth fighting?

Lead on Jim, we're right behind you!
 
I guess all is said...
I don't trust anyone who claims that something is "perfect"
Your statement Jim, however alarming, becomes reassuring after a while.
I like that, and I am signing under it.

I am ready, so is my bank account.

OK.
If you want perfect... or finished, don't buy RED. If you are brave and want the ride of your life... give us a call.

Well... after waiting for about two years and literally putting my all life on hold for this camera, including postponing moving back home to Italy (which in my condition it is definately not OKAY to do so), I continue to truly believe in RED and most of all what RED can do for me and can do together.

Unfortunately having to wait two years for my REDs and do to recent events, has now put me in a position were (mostly do to the Real Estate market ) I do not have the financials as I did before putting me in a precarious situation.

But how much do I still believe in RED and trust the RED team?

If I had a kidney to sale I would do it in a second, unfortunately I only have one, and it is even my own, its the one my sister donated me.

One thing for sure is that nothing is stopping me from coming up with the cash for my REDs, "NOTHING" I have already put my beautiful house for sale and working with a financial institution as well.

After my near death experience RED is what give me the spark to continue the Pursuit to my dream as a StoryTeller.

Thanks Jim for your post and dedication to your company.

Thanks all at RED for your hard work.

Ciao,

Jim not even life is perfect, keep that courage coming and you will truely succeed
 
The cash is sitting inertly in a bank account, waiting to be converted to a living, breathing camera. :weight_lift:

Bring on #1008! Now, if not sooner! Oh, and about that mattebox. When can we start crackin the whip on its price/time to market??

I don't wanna give my cash to a 3rd-party, I want to give as much of it as I can to RED, so that y'all can keep working your tails off, delivering excellent products at great prices, on my behalf!

Jim,

I want my m(*&$er f*#*&Bg camera now, because when SXSW comes around in March, I want to be one of the only companies there to offer a RED at the trade show. It's a huge deal for me and I'm anticipating a large crowd. There's something inside me burning and RED is feeding the fire. Work hard, fast, and efficiently, and hire my ass if you need more help.

All of us are extremely dedicated to all that is RED. How many people can say they check RED user 100 times a day for changes? How many people can say they own a RED? How many love this effin' company? Let's roll on this, baby.
 
In keeping with Jim's message and after seeing some of your responses, I just want everyone here to be rest assured that all of us here in the Bomb Squad are moving like madmen to answer all your e-mails, field your calls, and most importantly, get you guys your cameras.

All of us here take an extremly vested interest in each of you. Trust me, there is no bigger surge of satisfaction or excitement for me then when I recieve a tracking number and am able to tell you that your camera is coming. Our whole crew down here is full of film minded people and I'm so pumped and blown away by this camera that if asked, I would probably work here for free just to be a part of this.

Although Brent has stressed this point quite a few times, remember that we are here, ready to help you get the information you need and give you some peace of mind. I personally check and answer urgent e-mails even after hours. So there is always someone watching, always someone listening, always someone to talk to.
 
Travis I must say dealing with you has been a total pleasure and I completely appreciate the information you've supplied me. Welcome to the board!
 
I was going to buy an HVX package two years ago, until I saw that banner on top of DVXUser...so I ignored my grandfather's advice and put all my eggs in this basket and there have been no regrets.

In terms of the camera not being perfect...a painting is never done....the painter just decides to put down his brush.

I don't think Jim is ever going to put down his brush...which is good news for all of us, and digital cinema in general...besides, he'd probably just whip another brush out of his back pocket and keep slathering on paint.
 
Jim thanks for holding on the camera I would like to get. I am happy just waiting and giving you all the time you need. Many people are wanting it now and then when they get it, they are unhappy. I can wait and prefer you get all the time you need to have it 100%. Then again the first red holders have paved the path for inprovements. Thanks Red team for taking the time correct and improve as time goes on.
