  • 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 :)

NAB13- Dragon Sensor Upgrade Program begins

Will you at least tell people several days before the end of the deals?
 
Sorry if this has been covered, but what are the specs on the 6K Ana mode? What does the crop look like now? I'm ready to click the "Upgrade" button but want to make sure it will ship with that new Ana mode! :)
 
For Anamorphic mode... just know that it is 3+K tall times whatever anamorphic you use. So 2:1 anamorphic is 6K by 3K.

i ordered the Dragon upgrade for EPIC X 393 on Monday. Now I'm trying to order the upgrade for Epic X 1133 but the store says "you do not have any eligible brains to upgrade." Red Europe is closed at the moment but i would like to get my order in today.
 
Did you get an email regarding the upgrade?

I only say this as one popped into my inbox at around 8pm - so maybe you can't update until you've been sent a mail? Basically an automated system. My Epic was one of the first batch of Stage4 in the UK - Feb 2012.
 
Below is the Standard Warranty and Red Armor warranty policy on Red's website. There's no mention that it does not cover the sensor. Why does the original warranty that might still be effective and especially Red Armor not cover the Dragon sensor?

i got an email on monday. Epic X 1133 was a stage 3.
 
I'm not the CEO... I'm just the oldest living employee. :-)

Jim

Very odd to be getting a response from the CEO so quickly. I'm a fan, to say the least.
 
I know this has been asked to death sorry but since you're here :D Is there a timeframe for a Scarlet X to Epic X upgrade? Or will this be an ongoing offer?

As a Scarlet owner, thanks for some great options!

Thanks Daniel.. no set ending yet, but im sure eventually there will be one. Like they say, All good things eventually come to an end.

Luckily at RED we usually replace it with something just as good or better :)
 
Steve Duncan.. you are full of shit.

Go piss on someone else's tree.

Since Ive been on REDUSER its always been this way with RED.

You guys are the best.

And thanks again Jarred for the help in NAB ;)
 
Jarred, how about this Epic X to Dragon path? I'm not able to pay for it now. I know you can't promise lead times, but will this offer go at least until July? That's when I'll have the financing ready for the Dragon. Or, in other terms: do you think if I place an order now, I will have the sensor update call before July? (I'm probably not getting any answers for this...)

EDIT- after rereading all this thread I get the assumption this will be on going, so it leaves me more relaxed :)
