Ramping on the Scarlet???

[DaveT]

I recently completed a piece where I mixed up some Timelapse and 25fps footage.
You can check it out here...

One comment that I'm getting a lot of is, why not have the timelapse seamlessly flow into the full speed footage?

This is a clip from an email that someone sent me referencing the piece...

Maybe if in the same shot you had a mixture of time lapse and real time, it
would be more successful. I'm thinking something like matrix where you have real
time and then gets slowed down to emphasis a point. Maybe you could do reverse.
Have time lapse and then the real time to emphasis a point.

I used two cameras for this shoot so there was no way I could have performed this feat easily.

BUT, speed ramping has been noted as a feature of the Scarlet.

Can anyone from Red comment on whether it will be possible to trigger the Scarlet to start shooting timelapse (lets say 1 frame every five seconds) and then smoothly ramp to 25 fps?

Thanks

According to the spec sheet at http://www.red.com/epic_scarlet the 3K Scarlets and the Epics will feature Ramping, but not the Scarlet S35 or FF35. However, Jim has stated that specs have been updated since that posting, but it is unknown to what. So it's possible that ramping may be seen in all models.
