  • 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 :)

Who ordered EPIC stage 2? Let's try and count?

EPIC X

EPIC X

Hi,

Have we crossed '3xxx'..............Update guys....:hand:

Between Sept 2008(from the list Patrik D R1 sr no 2947) to October 2008 (from the list Riki B. sr no 4528) there are 1584 cameras delivered or booked ...that is a large number of R1's...

Got the email yesterday! Actually, it was a week late due to some mix up. Anyhow, that is #714, Mid-June was when I wrote the check. A bit behind for me.

Also, I didn't realize that I wouldn't have any ability to power the thing yet until my DSMC arrives (maybe 3 weeks) or the battery module (maybe a month)? Camera won't arrive for 2-3 weeks probably, so not a huge deal, but might have a slight problem there as I don't currently have a battery plate since my rig was stolen all those years ago...

Just completed our order for EPIC-X with all the 'goodies' to make a nice studio and hand held version! I have had great experiences testing 'M' cameras, know this is going to be great.

I remember ac-ing beta RED One cameras 'Boris' & 'Natasha' with the Robert Rodruigez, with the support and attention of Jim and Jarred. Class-act fellows and a turning point for 'film production' as I knew it.

I love my RedOneMX and am 'gitty' about our inbound Epic-X.

Thank you Jim, Jarred, the BombSquad, and Red for commanding such a great product. I look forward to the future.
 
Got the Fedex tracking email. It'll be here tomorrow!
 
Mark, is that for 2658? If so, great to see the latest batch is getting out the door! My order was processed and sent to shipping yesterday morning, hopefully I'll get an email for 2434 soon!

Jim,

Yep, for 2658. You know I've always felt kinship with you since we were so close in the birth order book of RED. You'll get your email very soon I'm sure!
 
FWIW, somewhat off topic, but my R1 MX 4784 was delivered to me in late October 2008, seems a bit out of wack with the general serial/delivery order. But hopefully puts my in better EPIC X position.

On a related note, have direct knowledge of 3 EPIC X's processed for friends, all 3 took about 2 weeks from email to having it in hand, some very recently.

You sure it wasn't October 2009? That seems awfully strange. Regardless, the order process seems to have picked up a good bit, mine took much less than two weeks from original email.
 
I don't think that's strange. In Aug/Sept 08 they started making like 1500 cameras per month. It took a year to get through the first 2000 and then two months to get to like 5,000!

You're right, as usual. I had a brain freeze and read October 2008 as August 2008. What was I thinking?
 
Hey Mark, one more piece of the puzzle - can you tell me when your order was actually processed and sent to shipping, i.e. Bomb Squad rep said
"all good, all paid, next step Fed Ex Notice."

Jim, it was yesterday. Spoke with my famous BS artist, Charles Contreras who processed everything pronto. It was very quick. I received my first email on Friday, called him Monday morning, and this afternoon got the email with the tracking info. "Charles in Charge" is my catchphrase for his typical speedy service, always helpful and courteous. He deserves a raise.

BTW, I'm sure it did help that I had already placed the funds in my account waiting to pull the trigger.
 
We have an EPIC on the way via Fed Ex. I believe we are RED One #2229. I got the email Thursday or Friday of last week. Paid by credit card over the weekend and it shipped today. Very nice work, RED!

Looking forward to receiving it.
 
So weird that people that got their emails last Friday already are getting their cameras. I got my email on the friday, the 7th... wired the funds on the 11th. Called my rep to tell him that the funds are in the account the next day. Still I'm waiting on a tracking #. For all of you new to the process... Make sure your rep sends you an invoice as soon as possible.
