We intend to offer a wide slection of media recording options, ranging from maximum economy - represented by RED-DRIVE at 320GB for under $1,000, up through maximum performance - represented by RED-RAM.

RED-RAM is a special version of the RED-DRIVE chassis that has two 32GB flash memory modules instead of hard disk drives. This arrangement offers outstanding resiliance against extremes of temperature and vibration, and a very high maximum data transfer rate.
 
Hi Stuart

Thanks for sharing the knowledge about the RED RAM. Is it possible to inlighten us on the other accessories as I'm sure many people would like to know more.

It all looks fantastic but I'd like to know what I'm looking at :-)

Regards
Rory

go it - so, same frame rates, just faster transfer - more rugged (and most likely, longer lifespan) ??

does ANY solid state option give me higher frame rates than the RED-DRIVE (60p REDCODE & 120p REDCODE 2K windowed)?
 
Will this allow for any special recording options?

Mmm... Good question! My guess is this is one of the NAB "surprises"... :) I think we shouldn't expect a clear answer about that question before NAB. But I think Stuart wouldn't mention (hint?) "very high maximum data transfer rate" if this did not clearly provide some sort of advantage :wink:

BTW, did anyone notice the lenses that are shown on the prices list's pictures! Looks like "Red Primes" don't they? I'm willing to bet another of those "NAB surprises" is gonna be a nice set of (very fast) Primes :)

OK! Enough predictions for today :wink:

The pictured lens has three geared rings... it's a zoom. A placeholder zoom for the render [not a real product].

At least that's what I'd put money on.

Good eye. :biggrin:
 
For those who own 35mm, Canon, and Nikon glass, wouldn't you rather use the 35mm lens? Even if you had the same mm in the 35?

I don't really know what you're saying here.

If you're asking what I think you're asking... it's a resounding yes. I'd shoot PL-mount cine glass over Canon/Nikon still glass any day.
 
Even though I don't currently have the resources available to have put in a reservation, I wanted to say thanks again to the Red Team for sticking as close to their initial price point as possible. Also, thanks for the changes that have been made since last years specs... obvious improvements in many areas.

Of course, I would love to own a Red One camera, but let's not forget that rental prices will be incredibly affordable too for this type of quality film making, as that will be my only path early on.

One question which may have been already asked... I did not see any lenses on the new price list. Are the older prices still holding?

RED 300MM f2.8 LENS $4995?
RED 18-85MM f2.8 ZOOM LENS $9,500?

And are there any other lenses that need to be added to the list?

We will post the price list on www.red.com about 5pm PST today. All reservation holders from 1-1460 will receive a one time "reservation allowance" to be used when purchasing accessories for the RED ONE camera. This "allowance" amount will be deducted from the total purchased package price.

Does that mean for those reservation holders, holding more than one reservation 2.500 USD for each reserved camera, if they buy accessories for each ?
 
That means that you get $2,500 off the purchase price for each camera you purchase. This discount it seems is only valid towrds accessories purchases.

If you plan on buying no accessories, I'd imagine there being no allowance.

I hope that number was a typo Jim because i am a reservation holder and my number is 1473.

Could you please verify this? Thanks.

EDIT! Ok don't answer that! I found out myself! :-)
 
Christmas comes early this year! (and it's not because of the earlier Daylight adjustment :spidy: )
THANKS RED ! ! !
