  • 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 :)

How Soon After NAB

when??

when??

The biggest problem that RED seems to face is "how long will it take them to get a product to market?"

If they could get a few thousand Scarlets in the marketplace within a month or so of NAB... they would clean-up.
 
It's interesting to read Jon's FAQ's..
About NAB: Scarlet is described again as "Pocket", he talks about a "4K delivery system" (projector, monitors?) and calls that the "tip of the iceberg".

Happy Days:biggrin:
 
the thing thas is so contradictory is pocket and professional in the same camera...never been seen before....that's what's causing a whole debate sharade around here....myself like many many other vote in favor of professional and not in favor of pocket....if needed I can always stretch those a little bit to fit the camera in...cmon Jim bring this hvx/ex1 killer we are all secretly hoping for...but watchout don't make it a red one killer too....)
 
I really hope they are ready to ship immediately after NAB... Because I have a project around May or June I have to do, and whatever Scarlet is, it will probably be a lot better than the PD-170s that I might have to use...

I really hope it's not a fixed lens - I have some Nikon glass I'd love to use on it.
 
I dont believe scarlet has a market place for a literally "pocket" camera, no one wants to shoot their full length feature with a small pocket camera.

The market is huge, if scarlet is that HVX/EX1 killer professional camera.

No competition to red, but has its own market possibly up to 1080p or 2K

We can shoot with the scarlet just like an HVX or over the shoulder

but if this is just a neat pocket device, not too many people want to hold a camera the size of uncle biff's small camera. thats the truth.
 
Maybe its a bunch of parts, that come apart and fit in your pockets!!!

I am really anxious to see what they come out with. I hope it comes with interchangeable lenses, but with a lens when you buy the camera.

I agree, but I DO believe it will be a "pocket camera".

Look at the Red One's "body", then look at the accessories. I believe the body will be pocket sized, yet the Scarlet will have a list of accessories just like the Red One. Including lens sets, rods, mattebox, and other things.

In the following interview, Ted talks about how the camera can have all of the extras taken off, and shoot "handheld" or on a steadicam...I believe the same about the Scarlet.

It will just be a little smaller body.
 
My original query was how soon did we think we'd get a shipping scarlet after NAB. if its going to be a year thats not as exciting as yeah we will have it this year.

I am sorry...I guess that will be STRICT speculation...I don't see anyway that we could know. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they had a limited amunt for sale at NAB...they have been working on this project quite some time.

So Scarlet is a 2k camera , nice , this is great news and partially confirms what I've been thinking. Gentlemen I think we are getting a hvx/ex1 2k killer
