  • 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 :)

POST IF YOUR BUYING A SCARLET NOV 3

Jesper your time is wrong. It's 6:40am in Los Angeles right now.
Which means - just over 11 hours left till announcement.

Nearly 900 users on Scarlet section with 11+ hours to go.

It's gonna get cray.

If it's a fixed Scarlet that meets the previously released specs, it's 100% certainty that I'm buying unless the price is just way higher than I expect. If it's an interchangeable Scarlet, then I'm still buying if I can afford it and a lens package.
 
1250 in the Scarlet thread and counting... I'm going to bed now for a few hours. Going to be hard to sleep.
SCARED what this lace will look like when I get back.
 
It depends mostly on the cost. Since our company is probably going to continue to rent film cameras from Panaflex or higher end digital cinema technology (like the Epic or Alexa) for our larger productions it only makes sense to invest in a camera for smaller projects up to a certain cost. If we cannot justify the cost of the camera plus the necessary accessories then we'll probably just stick with our 5D Mark II and possibly invest in some more glass. We're talking about a camera that is more than likely going to be used exclusively for web content and possibly some B-camera footage down the road, not something that will be a production workhorse on our stuff that's intended for festivals or other more conventional channels of distribution.

Calling it a "toy" would be a stretch, but I think you understand what I'm saying.
 
If a basic package (brain, mount, display, SSD module, battery) with two 64GB SSD's doesn't cost more than 15K, I'll be ready to place an order (and I hope it's a 2/3" sensor camera).
 
Cool, only 29 buyers. This should be a cinch . . .
 
Depending on that price, I hope I can pick one up.

I'm surprised, I was defiantly expecting more people to post.
I think Jim scared everyone off with all the talk about the price increase.
 
I would like to! I hope i can afford the price.
 
I know RED usually takes a 10% deposit, then contacts you to collect the balance. Will this be the case for Scarlet? My company card has a $2K per day limit so I am a little worried this might put me out.
 
I will buy at least one. If the price is right, two. If it's really right... 4 - 2 fixed (for 3D) and an 2 interchangeable.
