  • 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 :)

Everything changes... IMPORTANT post.

if you brought it down to the original price of the red one , no only would it be a nice nod to the first. but it would drive canon , sony and others out of their minds - guess red is playing for keeps and isnt interested in ceding any ground on tech specs or price. others are still dishing out incremental ware. funny none of them seem to want to go after the red where you are strongest internal recording and raw codec
 
Haha - Jim, I bought the same 1984 Mac for that outrageous price. A couple years later I recall buying a 10MB external hard drive for $1300. It's a wonder anyone could afford to buy computers in those days! LOL

We have... paid off our NRE.

That's always a biggie and a cost driver, but it's well worth it in the end. You've solved the major engineering challenges in releasing EPIC the first time; hopefully all future iterations of the camera will reap huge gains because of this.
 
Every new computer is more powerful than the last one for less money. The solution is a new model name.

I'm not into that. It is what it is.

I come from stills, have D1, D2, sitting on the shelf.. those are lovely bodies with crappy chips, not only is it costly to me, but also wasteful environmentally.

I applaud you keeping it simple modular, upgradable etc..

Far out Jim and Jared.

This is why I love you guys and Red.

Just imagine where your cameras will be 10 years from now.......it's all a dream come true.
 
This news has me worried and excited simultaneously. But more of the latter. It would of been great to know Dragon specs/pricing for Scarlet at this point in time - would make a world of a difference in my decision making.

Regardless, great news indeed!
 
Was out tonight shooting Squarepusher at Moogfest in Asheville. 5K HD with HDR. Def required for his insane lights -- 2.8 to 8 in 1/2 second. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Just keep doing what your are doing. It is awesome. LOVE my Epic.
 
I bought my Epic just under two weeks after the 2012 price increases kicked in. I ate a solid fist full of cash on the brain and accessories, for coming to the party late, but I never complained. I did however stand in awe as I read some of the stage guys bemoan their package deals. I would have loved to have been in on one of those. But hey, it is what it is and I'm damn happy I'm here now.

Viva la RED.

I don't regret buying for one moment and I hazard to guess there are few people here that took a direct Epic hit like I did. And you can count on me still being satisfied with my purchase after the price decreases. In fact, bring it on. I welcome the competition and the cooperation.

Let's do this. Why wait until Nov 1st? Makes no sense. Hit us with the good news and let's start the party.

Complain? Are you kidding? You let me return my beloved Red One for a 100% refund after using it for 3 years, then gave me 30% off what the Epic X kit is worth!

Red has proven itself again and again constantly and in my eyes could never do wrong.

Once again Red proves it thinks of their customers first!
 
Shot several times with epic and scarlet, I plan on buying next year now. Thanks.
 
You guys... It really bring tears to my eyes to see that at least some people in this shitty world think a little more than fucking other people over.
Scarlet Pazuzu is going to have a big brother very soon.
Captain Howdy ?
 
I wish there was an upgrade path to EPIC, I would give you my scarlet brain + $15000 ;)
 
Yeah it really means something that you guys are doing things like this. For a DP like me who works with lots of different cameras it is very reassuring to buy into red knowing you aren't going to dick your customers over by releasing a new model literally every f-ing year. THAT is why I finally made my decision to purchase. And let's be honest, you guys HAVE to be ahead of everyone in specs and cost, otherwise it drives you crazy, right? I mean, RED seems to turn in a dime responding to things happening in the industry, it's like you guys are having a drink and Jannard says "fuck it, lets just up the specs and lower the cost tomorrow." Crazy awesome.
