RED DSMC specs detailed, prices start at $28,000 for EPIC-X, lower-end Scarlet still vague

Oct 30th 2009 8:48PM on Engadget

I'm not a kid or producer and have done RED DIT work. It is not more expensive to shoot on RED at all. Hell, my MacBook Pro can do the post work for the camera and I've seen plenty of much cheaper, film rivaling footage from the camera. Film is certainly not cheaper, but it is a 100 year old, well tested and know technology. Nothing against film, truly, but RED is making it so non-film industry people can make quality films (quality looking anyway...story is another matter for another day).

I've been on both film and RED sets and RED is cheaper....even if you have a Scratch system RED is still cheaper.

People may balk at the price point, but this camera's main competition are the $100,000+ film cameras from the likes of Arri and Panavision. And you can't even legally buy one of those. Granted a full shooting package will push the price north of say $60,000, but that is still a steal for something you can actually buy.

Film will never die, but RED is giving it a helluhva run for it's money.

Why can't I win that one.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
