  • 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 :)

Quiet...

I'm getting increasingly annoyed by this silence game RED is playing. RED seems to have gone from 'we'll tell you everything what's going on' to 'if we're not saying anything at least we're not saying anything wrong'.
 
Come on, Mr. Kamp. . .

. . . everyone frustrated by the delivery delays, but I'm convinced that RED REALLY IS doing everything they possible can to make the RED the best possible (rolling shutter) camera it can be.

I'm committed. . . what say the rest of ye?

Stephen
 
the only reason we are quiet is that we are too busy putting all your cameras together to speak :)
 
Jarred is not lying. We are all working our butts off to get these cameras to you guys.
 
I hope you guys are eating well at least, and getting enough rest. All of us on the other side are rooting for you all! Keep up the radical work gents.

What on earth are you talking about?
 
I definitely appreciate your work guys! Having a camera less than perfect early on is much more frustrating than having to wait for it to reach perfection. Much like eating a cake before it's cooked. That could be "Good Eats" talking since I'm watching it as I type this! :sorcerer:

Sure the delays are frustrating but that is not what I am talking about. What I'm talking about is the lack of communication. I suppose they are busy making my camera now and I suppose it is still coming in January but with about 2 weeks to go in January there's still no official word. The only thing I have heard so far is from Jim saying about two weeks ago that he 'expects' my camera to be ready in January, which - let's be totally honest - in RED's case could mean anything.

It's my own money I am putting into this camera and I think I have the right to be annoyed. I would be even more with any other company than RED. I have been patient with RED because they were so open about what they were doing and it was exciting to be involved. But lately RED has been very cautious mentioning anything about developments and schedules, apparently so not to be pinned down on anything.

Please understand that I am travelling from the other side of the world to pick the camera up and that I need time here to prepare things. I have to talk to people, arrange things and so on. I can only do that if I am sure the camera is coming.

I don't think this is about being committed, really. I committed 1,5 years ago when I made a deposit for the camera and I have been patient with every delay there was.
 
A less than perfect camera is fine by me. If it turns on and records data I would rather have a camera now and be putting it to work. I'd take the updates and improvements as they come.
 
Hey Justin... let's have a party when #813 and #845 arrive in TX... We'll grab some actors and some beer. I'll bring the lenses. :whistling:

Welcome Brian Fairbanks to REDuser....

For those who may not know, they don't come any nicer, hard working or professional than Brain..... Another words your 'A' typical RED Team member.

And on a personal note I have to give Brian a BIG Thank You for work above and beyond, You Rock!


Thor, W/ RED in the house.... Awesome :-)


Let me state for the record as a early reservationist who's had his eye on RED from the beginning...

Team Red is Bringing it Everyday!

These guys work Loooooong days, weekends, holidays with the best attitude you will ever find.

It's my opinion they deserve our collective gratitude and support.
