Re: Could not get a date AFTER CASHING $30k worth of checks

I am personally opposed to "oversee" any mishaps or issues tech companies bring to clients regardless of how small or big your budget /name is. On several occasions I have pointed out issues with the RED camera, workflow and software on the RED user forum, not to annoy people but to inform about my personal experiences in a professional environment with real deadline - paying clients and not just: "lets shoot at the park with my buddy's RED toy".

But I learned quickly that many RED users, owners and even just followers get EXTREMELY OFFENDED if one bit of what you mention criticizes RED Corp in any way. I even had to add to one of my posts: "RED is not Jesus second coming" and even ask a few Red members: "why do you get so touchy?" about any constructive criticism. Only one person reply professionally and objectively.

The funny part is that thousands of RED forum users are not even owners, neither they work with the camera in mainstream projects. The fact is that the RED camera is a great breakthrough in quality and budget, but just like Apple, Avid, DaVinci, Quantel, Discreet or Sony, RED sucks in a few key areas big time.And that is OK!

I am very happy to see Ron making this RED forum open to discussions for both pros and cons. That is what forums should be about as long as the reasons are valid and a professional level of integrity is kept.
