Oh, and the best part of this new DSMC... My wife will stop nagging the shit out of me about my "Hummer" of a camera, and "RED RED RED". She's the still photographer in the house! I can finally start wearing the pants in the house again! "Get back in the kitchen, woman! Fix me dinner and then we'll talk about your new little RED."

Is that fair? I've never met a dog that doesn't know exactly what its doing, they're normally very professional, especially at begging, going walkies and sleeping ..being a dog is a full time job you know
 
Canon and Nikon have gotta be pulling their hair out right about now. And Im glad.
 
I love seeing RED evolve and create the future. Truly exciting times.

Rock on RED. "Show 'em watcha got..."
 
Wow! How do you get involved in beta testing. I have huge things I want to do with a camera like this. Seriously, I was going to write RED a letter explaining the benefits of just such a camera. I have some cutting edge products I want to use this camera for.
 
Its like Red worked backwards(I mean this in a good way) start from hardest, Cinema, then do Still! :shiftyph34r:
 
3 major cameras that are in development, before you've caught up shipping the first product ?
Please don't skip the boring stuff like that set of Primes I ordered last year! ...

This stuff is pretty simple.

1. Have the best sensor program.
2. Have the decision-maker be a shooter.
3. Don't have a legacy program to deal with.
4. Love this industry. Stay up 18 hours a day working on it. Have great people around you as passionate as you are.

The rest is a piece of cake.

We believe, and are developing for late 2009, a replacement for DSLRs.

I cannot start to even think of believing what I'm reading :biggrin:

Isn't it too early for the announcement? Won't that leave too much time for the competition to react?
I'm sure you have thought through the positive repercussions of this early posting ... or is it just because someone told you I was planning on buying a Nikon D300 sometime soon and finally drop my film Nikon camera?
Ok then, I'll wait a bit longer, you win.
 
6. Actually listen to your customers and deliver the goods. (Apparently this isn't simple or a piece of cake because other companies can't do it like Red can.)

7. Don't price gouge or nickle and dime.

They have a hard enough time acting on their own, let alone reacting to Red's speed and ability. Sony just announced their new camera and it got covered in the news with the title, "Sony declares War" or something like that. I almost laughed.

It doesn't matter what the competition does. They will always be "re"acting to Red's actions. I have ZERO worries that my Red camera won't have some feature or better technology like I do with my Canon 40D (which is already has been equaled by its new, and cheaper, little brother, the XSI).

But ever since buying my Red, I get improvement after improvement and hear about more coming down the pipe. I also hear other professionals, techies, etc. that voice their opinions, wants, desires, wish lists, etc. and Red listens and delivers... QUICKLY. There is no company out there, Canon, Nikon, Sony, etc. that does that.

Jim creates intelligent, innovative, cutting edge, HIGH-QUALITY products packed with "the best of" wishlists and then sells it at a more then fair, possibly generous price. Unbelievable.

That's why I'm willing to put my money down on the DSMC sight unseen (and I never do that) and I wouldn't even feel like I'm betting.

Hah they got you! Same reason why many sales of $2500-$10,000 cameras has probably slowed as shooters wait for Scarlett. I have rented RED for some shoots and I love the quality. I have been a still shooter for almost 35 years and it looks like I will be buying my last DSLR! (Wife cheering in the background)
