  • 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 :)

Good news...

will be posible to buy just one lense and not the all set?

thank you

Yes. It is cheaper per lens to buy the whole set, but you can buy individuals. Full set orders will ship 1st.

Everything changes when the charts get published...

Jim

I hate when he does this.....Its like Mr. Jannard has found our collective pavlovian button, curse my techie nature!!!

are we there yet??
 
Jim, I have every confidence that the lenses will be stellar performers, but... When it comes to producers and lenses, there are only three names they know, Angenieux, Cooke and Zeiss.......

Just like the old days when the only pro HD cameras that producers know are F900, Varicam .....etc.
 
The RED Pro Prime set is getting close to delivery... and we were more successful than expected on final production figures so, of course, we will pass the savings on to our customers. More details soon.

The lenses, as Mark pointed out, are all-world quality. We are very proud parents.

Jim

Keeps getting better and better, can't wait to sale my entire "L" Glass collection :)

Now if I could also sale my 1Ds III and 5D II for a Scarlett, while waiting for the Epic FF645 that would be absolutely Fantastic :)

ciao
 
Any word on the price yet? Or do we have to wait for NAB?

I'm really looking forward to seeing some images with these lenses!
 
Hey Evin, things change, just ask Kodak or General Motors- or Jim for that matter.
Besides, what's a guy like Jannard to do? back off because producers prefer a couple of flavors? "Stellar performance" will be enough for the rest of the world.
The elitist paradigm is in its final throws.
 
i do have a set on order...like many here...but i have no clue when delivery is possible, how fast and lowering prices is always something good.

Can we expect our order to be fullfilled in the next 60-80 days?

price going down is good.
 
I am really happy things are accelerating. Those lenses need to be in hands of many.
...and sure the success of the Red primes will surly depend on the charts and then latter stability in mechanics.
Looking at the new zoom 18-85, I am confident they will take some serious place among the Big 3.
Can't wait!
 
Jim,

Will the 18mm be as fast as the other lenses in the set ?

Thanks

Antoine
 
Jim,

Will the 18mm be as fast as the other lenses in the set ?

It should be, I believe that has already been stated. It really needs to be. OTOH, the 14mm or such wide lens probably will be slower to keep the cost from exploding.
 
Yes. It is cheaper per lens to buy the whole set, but you can buy individuals. Full set orders will ship 1st.

Jim

Heh.

I read that as "Full set orders will ship the 1st"

If only.... :D

How are their folks that have these on order? Were there ever reservations? How will new orders be taken, by camera reservation?

They were in the Red store in 2007, and the wise people put in deposits.
