Jim Jannard and his legacy is known worldwide and Red products are sold worldwide like Oakley did in the past...We are talking about manufacturing in U.S soil improves the quality and the economy which is something to be proud of and that is not political in any meaning Kristin,I give you a big F in this class sorry you better study harder....
Sanjin,
This post is interesting but I find it's kind of in bad taste. I am not saying you are wrong. Sure, the picture shows that the BOMB is made in germany, great.
But you know that the people at RED live in California right? They have families and friends and all of that. To remind them that they live on a fault line and that as a customer you need to ensure that your camera can still be built in the event of an eathquake is a bit in bad taste. Sort of like if we asked the Japanese to make sure they continued to ship a lot of fresh Tuna when they were hit with Nuclear disaster.
Many points you make here are very valid, but this one feels like you are trying to rub someone's nose in shit and that doesn't sit right with me.
America is due for a rennaissance in manufacturing. It's OK that RED is proud to be proving that it can be done in America.
Respectfully,
David

David,
Sorry but I don't see it in that way.
No offenses to anybody and it was just to know that everybody is safe there, RED as a brand, production and also the workers inside of the plants.
Also in a way of us, RED customers.
This just got me even more excited for my Scarlet purchase! How cool is it that the thing I've been drooling over for years, probably the only other thing I'll own (other than my house) is made right here. Thanks Jim.
I love that! I have an uncle in Michigan who does just that - manufacture stuff in the USA. Treats his workers like family, makes a good living of it. Doesn't have to work hard to compete with China. Quality costs, simple as that. And we make software in the Netherlands and keep having to swat all the 'outsource to us in *insert low wage country*' guys down. No thank you, sir, lets do that another way.

Also it was questioned in a way of safety of all us, RED customers.
I'll never forget that Oakley headquarter house was a sort of SF but also a real bunker building.
