The camera that is discussed in the original post is the RED Scarlet, which is set to come out in 2009 (http://gizmodo.com/379530/red-scarlet-3k-hd-pocket-pro-camera-under-3000 http://gizmodo.com/379530/red-scarlet-3k-hd-pocket-pro-camer...). You are thinking about the RED OnE.
I am not slagging the author of the blog cited in this thread but some details about the price point and features would have helped emphasize how "game-changing" this camera really is. Once again, I can agree with that.
- pius 18y agoI gotcha. Any word if the $3000 is just for the body or if it's for an inclusive kit?
- TrevorJ 18y agoJust the body I would assume. Lenses are usually a whole new can 'o worms. THOSE suckers cost an arm and a leg no matter r what camera you are shooting on if you want good ones.
- pius 18y agoLenses are usually a whole new can 'o worms. THOSE suckers cost an arm and a leg no matter r what camera you are shooting on if you want good ones. True, indeed. :)
- rp 18y agoThe specs on the RED link above lists "8X T2.8 Red Zoom Lens" so I think this comes with a lense.
- joshwa 18y agoThose can be rented... in fact where this will really change things is when the local grip rental houses start renting these things out by the day/week. Even if the rates are more expensive than the equivalent 35mm kit, the cost of film stock far outweighs the rental costs. So now for the cost of a day rental, an indie filmmaker can shoot at 3k quality, and only be limited by hard drive space (which is way cheaper than film, and is renewable) rather than the $600/min cited above for 35mm film stock.
