  • 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 :)

New features on the way...

ditto on the dual monitoring...
 
gulp. help me with my math, its late. i'm #1929 (timestamped #429 1st day of NAB 07). if i was expecting it feb 10th for a huuuuge shoot--before the 2 week delay

It's probably not wise to plan a big shoot for the second you get your camera. Ship dates are tentative and you will need time to learn the workflow and how to best work with the camera.

when should I be safe? Do you think every addition of a feature set will add more of a delay?

You will be safe when you get a notice from us that your camera has been scheduled to ship.

Maybe you'll catch a break here. I've been told that any #'s received with the NAB orders don't correspond to the queue. With 1475 orders pre NAB, and you ordering the first day, maybe you'll be in the January delivery group.

I hope so, anyway, since I ordered the first second the system would allow it the first day at NAB, and can't see why I wouldn't be in that group.
 
For me Spring starts early February!

I'm covering my ears now...La la la la la (I can't hear you!) la la la la...
 
Subject to change.... nothing wrong with that... but seriously, there will be more delays... to improve the product for the rest of us... even Silicon Valleys's dream sports car, the Tesla, just got delayed 3 month... stuff happens... but please stop expecting the current forecasts... add 1-3 months to it, be happy if it shows up sooner.

I just thought it was interesting to note that I have been closely following three projects that I consider breakthroughs, that are close to my heart if not my wallet (since I can't afford two out of three of them).

These are (in order of introduction) the iPhone, the RED and the Tesla Roadster. All are revolutionary in their own way, and none have arrived on time. (In theory the iPhone did, but it was clear they had to divert huge engineering resources to do it, which would mean a big delay for any smaller company. And it did in fact cause a major delay for Leopard, so I think it's fair to say that none of these projects have been without significant delays).

I'm just glad there are people out there like Steve and Jim and Martin who are determined to do the impossible and have the guts and chutzpah needed to win even under what seem like impossible odds.

I know the delays are annoying but we are living in an age with incredible people and amazingly great products and I think we should all be happier for this.

All I can say is AMAZING!

Jim, you and Red are a breath of fresh air in the world of technology. You've made a product that is a the stuff of dreams, one that is upgradeable and modular. One that is not going to be out of date in 6 months. One that gives the capability of taking the RAW footage from the sensor and giving it to the operator. DSLR's have done this for years and the Pros couldn't/wouldn't live without it.

I wish the so-called 'big fish' would take note. Its sickening to have a product that is upgraded one month after I buy it, but I can't upgrade it! You've proved it can be done.

Please stay with this path you've taken. Thanks for putting the Red user first.

Thanks, Jim. What about scaled 2K? Is that something that is in the works?

no, no, i was planning on giving myself a month to learn the camera after i receive it. too big of a shoot. now itll be 2 weeks unless theres more of a delay. if so, i'll push back.
