We have decided to add $1000 to the price of Scarlet and include HDRx capability. The extra money will go to more boards and another ASIC plus development. The improvement is more than worth the effort. The image possibilities and capability are incredible.

We watched the voting, but more than that we know how much improvement HDRx is to the program.

It will only cause a slight delay in the program. You need to trust on this one...

You are the best! I'm definitely going to get this now.
 
Personally I am very happy about this decision. I plan to have an 8x fixed with me at all times as a personal camera and now it will have more DR then any non RED camera out there. I had voted "no" in the pole because I have a lot of friends waiting for Scarlet and I know the extra $1k will put it out of their reach for the near future.

If there is only a small hit to the schedule I think this is great if we look at the big picture: half of potential Scarlet owners may not be able to afford it now, but when they can it will be miles ahead of anything else even close to the price range.

Definitely like the feature, price is reasonable but seemingly never-ending delays and feature creep seem to be the only thing consistent here...

Love your vision and passion, can't deal with the delays...

Cheers Red Team ...
 
Awesome!! This could get ugly... Lots of people were hoping for scarlet to be a sub-5k camera. I, for one, think this is great.
 
Jim thank you a million!!! I absolutely can't wait. Any chance we can still hope to have one in hands before the end of the year? :) I'm so happy right now! Any more news on the S35? Would that include this upgrade?
 
Jim, so what features do you think that separates EPIC and Scarlet ?
 
Thanks Jim for this great news!!!

This makes sense just because without HDRx Scarlet would be obsolete by point of view from the side of RED technology and also from the pressure of competition that never sleeps...
 
I just hope RED will draw a line somewhere in terms of adding new stuff to the camera. It's starting to look like the Duke nuke forever of the cameras like this.

Yes I think some people will consider it too much, but many of those have left already. Scarlet is going to have it's own unique place in the market, and this move only solidifies that state of affairs.

brilliant move.

Anyone that has another option... God love them.
