I can't wait to get my hands on the full information of all the modules so I can start planning my package. I haven't wanted to build something this bad sense I was 6, forget the other camera makers, Red is poised to beat the snot out of LEGO!

Yeah!

I'm still hoping for the Lego Creator app on the RED mainpage store where you can plan out your camera setup. Pleaaaaaaaaaaaase! We wants to build!
 
RED RAY

RED RAY

It wouldn't have to "open" for third parties to have export-encode options in their apps. You could do that with an SDK.
Click to expand...

The only requirement is that the post production application should provide (the RED RAY encoder) a sequence of 4K or 2K resolution DPX files...
 
now RED has made life difficult...what to buy...can't afford all...want one at least...which one...EPIC(great deal...keep my RED One)? Scarlet 8x? Scarlet 2/3 removable?....might just go for the Scarlet 2/3 removable and the set of mini-primes...or the EPIC...haaaa...decisions....
 
I've been meaning to ask a question about auto focus. I remember from the EPIC feedback thread something along the lines of...

Since autofocus is in the brain it will work with all the electronic mounts. Seems like the same story here.

Curious if there will be a way to interface with external motors to allow auto focus to drive motors to turn gears on standard cine lenses. And if that will work, I'm wondering if you could similarly use the REDMOTE PRO as a wireless follow focus to control the same external motors.

I think that would be cool and seems plausible.

Anyone know for sure?

Jarred,

Can you please remove the "BOMB" from the side of the EVF. I don't want to even deal with the airports with something labeled "Bomb" on the side of it. AIRPORTS and the word "BOMB" don't mix. Sorry but it will certainly drive a lot of people nuts.

Ha Ha our chief EVF engineer had the same complaint :) We liked the name though.. so we are keeping it. Nothing a little gaffer tape wont fix going through customs if you are really worried about it.

Ultimately I would like to have one of each, a fixed and a cinema. They would complement each other nicely.
Click to expand...

I am only going to be able to afford one so I am going with interchangeable. All I can think about is that angi 12-240mm on a cliff filming surfing.

Also, I am done with electronic lenses. I am going all manual as soon as possible for as long as possible

Lmao! Best suggestion all night.

Jarred, I have to say that I am VERY pleased with the announcement today. It is pretty much everything I expected. From price to expected delivery dates, it all went over great. These cameras are going to be phenomenal and I cannot wait until I can get my hands on these cameras.

Two things I have to ask though.

When do you think we'll be able to see some footage from the mini-RED Primes. I'd love to see how they compare to the Zeiss DigiPrimes and also the RPPs.

Also, if everything goes well, how about you guys release the 2/3" Scarlet on May 22. Its my birthday and we Jerrods/Jarreds gotta stick together. :thumbup1:
Click to expand...

My birthday is May 30th.. how about that :)
 
Really? So does that mean the final shipping versions of all the new RED gear will have their names printed in white right on the units? It's like each piece of equipment just screams, I AM BOMB EVF or I AM RED STATION... :)
 
Thanks for the update! I don't know if this has been said already or not, but it's going to be fun going through airport security with an EFV with the world bomb on it... especially in such nice big letters... and you'd better be careful when you're listing off what's in your bag LOL

My wife's birthday is May 15... Nothing would make her happier than receiving that 8X Scarlet. I'm sure of it. :yesnod:

Hey Jarred, I am on a roll, so why not throw me a bone and answer any of these for me that you can

1) how much will the mini pl mount cost ...or at least how much do you expect
Click to expand...

It will be less than the electronic mounts. (which are $500 each )

2) is the price variance for battery modules have to do with which batteries it comes with?
Click to expand...

There are some options in there that we will talk about soon.. not only different batteries, but different modules.

3) the picture of the redmotepro in the announcement said 4k raw on it. Was that a redmotepro on another model, or is the 2/3" surprise specification from #21 that we now get 4k?
Click to expand...

The REDMOTE was designed first for the EPIC brain.. so the Epic info screen was on it. No 4k on the fixed 8x. :tongue_smilie:
4) I have no intention of buying 2/3" fixed but for shits and giggles how is it that it comes with no side handle or battery module? Does the camera brain for fixed now come with a slot for a single redvolt?
Click to expand...
The 8X fixed package deal is a up-and-shoot package, and unfortunately by announcement time it was still a little too early to lock down which option we can include for power so we left it off the list for now.. don't worry, we will let you know soon.

5)what kind of connectors are those exactly on the front of the brains for audio?
Click to expand...

3.5mm jacks....Each input is balanced or unbalanced mono microphone level input as well as 48V phantom power.

thanks man, im trying to find facts and stick to them as much as possible so please help me out
Click to expand...

my pleasure.

If I remember correctly, you put your finger on the touch screen and the camera will focus on that point. The subject moves, you move your finger with the subject to keep her in focus.
Click to expand...

Huh? What about when I keep the subject roughly in the center of the frame by paning to follow her movement? Will the camera automatically adjust focus, or do I have to keep my finger on the screen?

I'm not sure I'm getting the advantage of this approach, not say there isn't one (of course).

Thats not a good solution,

So your saying to hide the word "BOMB" on the EVF at the risk of them discovering that I'm hiding it, what are they to assume and how am I supposed to explain this to the FAA? This could be a large mistake to make. I'd say listen to your EVF guy, you guys pay him for a reason right?

I can't be the only person that see's this.

Would the 2/3 Scarlet with Mini Primes (or even fixed lens for that matter) have depth of field similar to 35mm with larger lenses, or will it be more along the lines of what conventional video cameras with similar sized sensors are capable of?
Click to expand...

That is the same question I have. First post here but have been reading for quite some time. These announcements are quite impressive. Looking forward to getting a Scarlet in the near future. This question may just decide which version I will be going with.

Thanks,
Flugo

Touch to lock focus... if she has a face, you can use face tracking, or if not you can use the traditional focus points.
