    Red Scarlet Cam Replaced With a "New Vision"

    Red's Jim Jannard has told fans in the RedUser forums to "Wipe your minds of the past announced Scarlet. Forget the design and forget the price. It is all different now. We think you will be surprised." In his words, "the market has changed and we have discovered a lot of things in the process. We have a new vision." So it is not as though the Scarlet cam has been scrapped—what we are talking about here is a ground up redesign that should be a positive thing for consumers. That having been said, the RED EPIC is going to receive a similar treatment as well. More »

    RED May Be Making a DSLR Camera

    The RED camera's Jim Jannard mentions the next generation Mysterium "Monstro" sensor, which be offered as a free upgrade to the Mysterium-X piece shipping in the Epic cam. Then he blows my mind by revealing he's getting into the DSLR race with the same kit. [REDUSER via Engadget, image not of anything remotely made by RED]

    New Red Scarlet Cam Prototype Looks Rugged, Can Probably Kill You with Death Rays

    The high definition wizards at RED have a new design update on their Red Scarlet HD Pocket Pro, their handy high definition camera priced under $3,000, which can shoot 3k resolution 120fps video. Looking at the new rugged exterior, it can probably shoot anti-matter beams or armor-piercing grenades too. We want. [Scarlet user]

    Red Scarlet 3K HD Pocket Pro Camera Under $3000

    Red's pocket-sized professional camera, Scarlet has made its promised debut at NAB, and it is the tiny hotness. It shoots in heady 3k resolution with Red's new 2/3-inch Mysterium X sensor, shooting from 1-120fps (180fps burst) and up to 100MB/sec REDCODE RAW HD, recording to dual Compact Flash cards. It's got Wi-Fi control (sweet), and all the necessary ports: HDMI, HD-SDI, Firewire 800 and USB2. The 4.8-inch LCD should be more than adequate on this compact HD shooter. Besides coming with an 8X T2.8 Red zoom lens, it's compatible with most Red One accessories. Price? We're hearing under $3000, set for early '09, no pre-orders. But the note that specs and delivery dates could change is a bit ominous, since the Red One saw some delays. [Red, Brochure]

    Red "Pocket Professional Camera" AKA "Scarlet" To See Daylight at NAB

    Jim Jannard, the rambunctious Oakley founder and Red HD camera revolutionary has taken a leak into his own hands and confirmed that the company's next camera, a pocketable pro dubbed Scarlet, will be shown at this year's NAB. Jim: I'm glad you're pushing the tech toward consumers. This sounds like an interesting dovetail with the redcode rumors from Macworld. [RED Forums]

    Red's 4K HD Video Camera to Work With Apple ProRes: Here's what we know about Red

    Red One's compatibility with Apple's ProRes was a welcome surprise. There was some worry on our part, after the Red One camera delays, and after the prototypes were nearly lost to thieves last year. So we're happy to see it taking off like this. Congrats to Ted Schilowitz, and his team. More »
