Optitek Nikon mount voids RED warranty?

[John Wee]

Would it void the warranty of the Scarlet if we use the Optitel prolock Nikon mount ?

 

[Jeff Kilgroe]

Unless something has changed in the last week or so... The OptiTek mount is RED-approved.

Jeff-

I am under the impression that the Optitek nikon mount for Epic/Scarlet is still an "approved" mount, BUT may be undergoing some sort of tweak per this post from Jarred...

I don't know any specifics... Maybe Jacek can chime in??

We have recently made a small modification per RDC engineering suggestions.
Red will have their modified sample in a couple of days.
All units shipping will have it done.
If you have any questions about one purchased in the past please contact me at the email below

I just got mine a week ago.. Now Im apprehensive about using it.. Jacek, should i send it back to you for modification?

 

[Nathaniel Kramer]

Should I send mine back ? I have not mounted it yet and dont want to do anything to void my warranty.. Please advise.. Will epic require backfocus adjustment when pl is re attached?

 

[Jacek Zakowicz]

Email replied. Yes you can send back and we'll install the modified part.
