Re: First Impressions on the RED Rocket

I think that's very questionable advice for an individual owner of a camera who's doing personal projects on a tight budget (and that describes an awful lot of Red's customer base) and for whom a few hours time doesn't directly translate to money. If the Rocket card cost a few hundred dollars, and if it did things that were impossible without it, I might agree. But the fact is that it doesn't do anything that can't be done with Red's free software tools - at the cost of more time, of course - and it costs 5 THOUSAND dollars. For a business in which time equals money very directly, that's a reasonable investment. For an individual, it's an awful lot of money for something that is, in the end, unnecessary.
