Desired Changes with Scarlet..

[brandon thomas]

1. Interchangeable lenses.

 

[WesVasher]

I say keep the fixed lens for the market they are targeting.

 

[Andreas Fernbrant]

I'd say nikon mount!

 

[brandon thomas]

i'd say ship it with it's 8x lens, but have the option to switch it out for nikon canon or b4.. just to have options.. like the new sony ex3. or even different red branded lenses if they choose to go that route. an 8x lens sounds very limiting.

gotta keep up with your competition.... so to speak...

although i say that the lens thing is the only option in my mind it's currently lacking.. i'm sure the lack of mention of audio options was just an oversight.. or just not yet implemented at this stage in development.

 

[Gene Crucean]

I agree... ship the current one as the stocker, but with a nikon mount.

I also want a bigger sensor.

1. Interchangeable lenses
[ 2. Delivery date Q3 or Q4 2008 :biggrin: ]

 

[Steven Johnson]

Or sell two models, one with fixed lens one without.

I do not ever want to use another 35mm adapter again, I'll gladly shell out more $$$ to have interchangeable lenses.

 

[Andreas Fernbrant]

I also would want a less sony handycam like form factor.

 

[Johan Malmsten]

The only thing I can say I'm a little dissapointed about is the lack of interchangeable lenses...

But... pffft... for that price... I'll take it, regardless of sound... I'll shoot MOS if I have to just to get all of those other stuff on Redcode Raw solid state recording...

 

[James T Mather]

then buy a red one.

 

[brandon thomas]

i can live with the smaller chip.. as long as i have the option to change lenses.. i agree.. no more 35mm adapters..

i'd definitely pay way more..

but i'd love a red camera to use all my nikon glass with..

 

[Steven Johnson]

As the brochure says, "specifications, delivery dates and design are subject to change... count on it"

I'm sure if the demand for interchangeable lenses keeps growing for the Scarlet, expect a change

 

[kylegherman]

Add zoom and focus rings on the lens and I am sold.

 

[brandon thomas]

then buy a red one.

i'm pretty sure the point of scarlet was to let in the group of people, myself included, who can't afford to invest in a red one, or even dream of an epic.

the lens on scarlet is the one factor that makes me even consider a different camera.. i've been waiting for scarlet since hearing about the red one for the first time two years ago.

if they make this one concession on scarlet's design it'll make me waiting for 3 years seem worth it.

 

[David Dennis]

If it were only available in Fall 2008 I would buy it instead of the Nikon D300 I'm planning for.

Guess I'll have to wait until next year before I get my RED ... but I'm definitely looking forward to it - it sounds perfect for the kinds of shooting I like to do.

[Johan Malmsten]

I smell a petition coming... about the lens-issue I mean...

but again... the image qualities from this will be effin' sweet

 

[ArthurG]

interchangeable lenses +1

 

[Aiden Cornwell]

To me if they allowed for interchangeable lenses then it com peats with Red One. For myself the fixed lens is no issue. What I want is recode raw and having 3k instead of 1080p is perfect.

 

[Thom Steinhoff]

my thought/hope is that they would sell Scarlett with a fixed lens but on a Red mount platform. That way, just like you can remove the PL mount and put on a Birger, you could remove the fixed lens, put on a PL mount, Birger, Nikon or whatever.

That would certainly be the RED thing to do!!!

 

[Jason Wingrove]

NIKON MOUNT GUYS, they said this was meant to be pro. NO fixed lens cam is pro regardless of sensor or rez.
