  • 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 :)

What EVF res. numbers are shipping now?

I personally allocate each and every EVF to every customer has ordered one. We know how important they are to you, they are just as important to us. Production on EVFs is going extremely well and with each day that passes, EVF allocations get closer to the camera serial numbers being delivered. Thanks for everyone's patience and we are going to keep busting our butts to get you EVFs as quickly as possible!

red #859 still feels lonely...

red #859 still feels lonely...

my red 859 bride is still waiting for her blue evf prince.
she keeps looking at the mail... nothing.
not a sign. no notifications...
what can i do for her? how can i keep her calm?
 
This has become more difficult to decipher... EVF orders and all other back orders are now being filled in the order which people received their cameras, not camera serial #.
 
I wonder what hundred(s) being shipped per months means... is that 200 or more? Man if its only 200 looks like I have a six month wait.
 
Well, being the one who started this thread, it's incumbent of me to announce that I finally received notice of my EVF's impending shipment. I'm #1146.
Don't give up hope, guys.
 
Grrr.... RED should've waited a couple weeks to switch their backorder policy. Oh well, mine should still be coming up soon.

This has become pretty frustrating. A great camera with no viewfinder.
And the Red LCD is useless for shooting outdoors - a $1700 paperweight while I beg, borrow, and rent EVFs to use a camera I own.

Any other options out there?

Not totally useless, I used mine for 5 months on dozens of exterior shoots while waiting for our EVF.

I guess you weren't trying to track a moving animal and keep the fur in focus. For that, totally useless.

edit: I should mention that the EVF is superb. Clear view and just the right features. With the EVF and the ET mount, the Red becomes a great camera to shoot. Without the EVF, it's a good studio camera, but very problematic in the field.

Just got the"your EVF is almost available to ship..." email.
Timing is a bit off, I really could use it next week Monday...

Fingers crossed it'll be getting here sooner than later.
 
hey you lucky ones!
#1089 and still waiting on my "Your EVF is nearly ready to ship" mail.
I guess posting such mails to Europe takes a slightly bit longer
