December deliveries...

[Greg Ephraim]

whoop whoop, that's awesome that they are going to get all the cameras up to #3000 out by end of December!!! .... wait, nevermind, I just woke up

 

[Clayton Harper]

I thought it was supposed to be #100-200 shipped during December.

Right?

 

[Terry Delahunt]

Sorry Terry but that schedule is way old...

It´s been updated twice since.

Thanks Eirik, I have deleted it! Do you know when I can now expect #745 ?

 

[M.Halsell]

Thanks Jim+team. Happy Thanksgiving. 2007 was good year. 2008 will be even better.

 

[Paul Lee]

Sorry, but can someone please clarify- does the November 30th date no longer stand for any cameras?

The November 30th date was the beginning of the December shipment... that is now on a slight delay.

[Häakon]

Can you please clarify the intended timeframe for bringing 1-100 up to speed? Thanks.

 

[Daniel Gourley]

Does this mean we will see the Nikon mount very soon as the PL mount is complete? What do we do if we would like to wait for the Nikon mount. Do we need to start over in line or can we get it shipped to us when it is ready?

Thanks!

Jim, the last update I saw for cameras 201-600 was December 10th. Is that now pushed off. Will those cameras still ship out by the end of December? If so, that is better than I thought due to changes in the PL mount. I had a feeling we might be looking at January 08. What a Christmas gift if it arrives by end of December.

Thanks,
Steve

Honestly, this was what I had derived from the many conversations here on this forum. Also, it is what I take away from Jim's post above... great news for all us.

 

[sander kamp]

Sorry but I find this a bit vague. My number is 441 so when am I going to get asked about transferring the money? When do I get more info on the exact delivery date?

I was planning on picking the camera up when it was ready but end of December is possibly the worst time to travel overseas - probably the worst time for shipments as well - so basically I am looking at beginning of January, right?

 

[dudeman]

Sander, from what I understand your camera will be ready in the later part of december. You could pick it up in January if you wish. We have been given 30 days to pay... or you can wait till all feature sets have been implemented and I believe there is a third option-- search Brent@REDs' posts.

Hope this helps-- but if I am wrong please correct me RED TEAM

 

[Rick Darge]

awesome Jim - now please someone at Red clarify these important questions before someone's head goes 'pop'

1. When are cams 1-100 coming up to speed?

2. Do cams 201-600 still ship before December's end?


Thanks

Right now we are focused on finishing the new lens mount. We are almost there. When we get it done and it passes Jarred's torture testing, we will begin production. Camera bodies are lined up waiting for the lens mount. We can't give too much detail on production until the lens mount is finished. Trust me, we are working overtime to get this done.

Understood. I was just curious if by end of the month you were referring to cameras 201-600 and it looks like you were which is really great. Obviously if the new mount has issues and needs further tweaking, then we may be in for another delay. But sounds like the cameras themselves are ready to go which is great news!

[Steve Sherrick]

By the way Jim, how cool is it to see all of those cameras lined up? Must be a huge thrill for you.

[Greg Ephraim]

Just totally random, because I want to double check, if you order the Nikon mount (when it is available) the camera still ships to you with the PL mount right? So you have both PL and optional Nikon mount to replace it when needed....if that makes sense, ha

Thing is, I emailed RED about payment about a week ago and then I was told they were on a production hold. End of December is in about 30 days or at least in a week it is so within a week I am asked to transfer the money? OR is RED going to fix the mount first before anything happens?

 

[Jannard]

We'll finish the mount, then announce the rest...

Copy that...
