Thanks to Jarred, Justin O'Neill and I got to play with the Red Fixed Lens Scarlet camera. Justin O'neill shot this video with his iphone 4.

"I'm currently at Red Studios helping with the Santa Fe 3d Workshop with Geoff Boyle. Just as I am sitting there...in comes Jarred with a WORKING Red Scarlet camera! Naturally I was dying to hold the camera. As Jarred passed it to me, he told me I was the first public person to hold a working Red Scarlet. Let me tell you folks, it is real and is working. The Scarlet I was holding had the 5inch lcd touchscreen. The lens gear which can be set to zoom, iris or focus is buttery smooth. QUALITY. The electronic zoom works like a charm. I used the up-down rocker on the camera to zoom in on a Jeep in the parking lot (though I was "Mr. Shakey" due to the sheer excitement of finally getting to hold the Red Scarlet.) Justin O'Neill and I got to see it for a mere brief moment and off it went back to the vault. This should be comforting to those who may fear that RED wouldn't have time for the Scarlet with all the Epic buzz going on. This gives me more confidence that the Red Scarlet is definitely around the corner. I have been really lucky to have held both the Epic and Scarlet. The Scarlet is lighter in weight than the Epic even with the fixed lens. This is due to the Scarlet body being more narrow. The weight felt very good and the camera felt rugged. Touch screen controls were functional. Video Coming soon."

Hey Tonaci,

What did you experience about the shallow DOF? Because lot of people worried about that the 2/3 sensor can't give enough shallow DOF, how did you see that?

 

[Albert Astorga Zepeda]

I Really do not like Glossy LCDs. they Must change it to a Matte finish. otherwise it will double as a reflector or mirror. at the begining of the video I thought it was not on. because I could not see anything on the LCD.

 

[Bastien Tribalat]

As there'sno numbers on the lens, how could follow focus work can be managed ?
Is the picture near of a 16mm picture ? (since a 2/3" sensor semms to be a very little bit smaller than a 16mm image area, how is it shallow depth wise and resolution wise ?)
