  • 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 :)

Release Date yet?

I wonder how well you'd be able to pull of an indie feature like a romantic comedy with just a fixed lens scarlet, or would your DP kill you and people laugh at you? lol.

I was going to just use the Scarlet fixed for corporate type of work and get an S35 for the feature, with primes, etc. But I'm not sure how my business situation will be then, so it may come down to use the fixed Scarlet or rent the RED One...

A 2/3" camera with a long range T2.4 zoom lens is something to laugh at?

Sounds pretty feature capable for me.

Shoot, I remember back when Scarlet was ONLY fixed lens and Jim was bragging about it smoking a F23's ass.

Sure it won't be as popular for feature and commercial work as the S35/FF35 Scarlets, but it'll still make some fantastic images.

By F23 do you mean this? http://pro.sony.com/bbsc/ssr/cat-broadcastcameras/cat-cinealta/product-F23/

If so, then that's REALLY sad... $150,000 camera beat by $3750 one? And Scarlet does 3k AND up to 120 FPS...

How the hell does RED do it? I'm impressed!

Ha ha. You can't compare a $150K existing, proven in the field camera to a $3750 spec sheet.

When the 2/3" Scarlet comes out, I'm sure the comparison will then be feasible and appropriate.

Well I did see the footage of Izzy, and that is quite promising... but it is just ONE shot, and shot by them of course... so I agree let's all wait and see :D
 
I for one will not buy a camera, or any camera unless RED or someone else makes some raw footage shot in different situations available for download so I can really check it out first… I don't think that's too much to ask. :smile5:
 
Ikonoskop made a "like 16mm" camera that shoots full hd raw. There's a short video on the site but dunno if anyone has already seen this gear !

Has Red forsaken us?

No news on fixed lens Scarlet in recent months at all.

Well, this render JJ posted yesterday looks like the fixed Scarlet to me: brain is the same width as redmote, so it's a Scarlet, there doesn't seem to be a lens mount and it looks pretty long so it could very well be the fixed version.

The angle of the shot may of course hide the mount behind the handle, and it makes counting ridges a bit hard, but still...
 
I'm about 99% sure this is just the same RPP we've seen on all the renders. Look at the gearing and size. The Fixed version renders never showed that, and the lens spec was set to have a 77mm filter diameter. I doubt it'd go up that much.
 
There should be a moratorium on comparing Scarlet to cameras that exist and can be purchased.

Maybe its the render of the EPIC they showed in Amsterdam ....
 
Ok its looks thinner but whats the point to not tell it would be the scarlet? It must be the epic! Hopefully it comes some renders of scarlet soon!

I think the main reason was that there were some renders of an extremely similar setup and you could clearly see the letters "let" under the RED logo, so that one at least was a Scarlet, and the ones from behind seem to match up with the Scarlet's width in relation to the remote.
 
Ok I looked again and its totally true. Thanks!
 
it could be nice from red to say if they are able or not to deliver the scarlet since the end of the year ... was hoping for a first model in september or some news .. but as i see .. nothing .. should i look in other brand ?

Where you gonna go, Panasonic, Sony, Canon? If you were convinced of the others, you probably would have made that decision already.
 
i mean expecting something that will happened in 1 years .. maybe you have to look for another solution even if they are not better !
scarlet is going to be my first " pro" cam .. but not in 2011 !:bigear:
