Re: JVC user comments on RED Cinema

Hey Johnny,

The RED cam range looks like the future to me, and at the moment they are unique in every respect, but it will only be a matter of time before the market leaders step up to the mark, and produce a budget 3/4k camera.
Sony, JVC, etc have deep enough pockets to be able to license the technology from RED, and produce their own take on the RED cam, but will this happen?, well, only time will tell.
The only drawback at the moment with going the RED cam route is the cost of a set of primes, OK, you can get a Nikon, or Canon adaptor for Scarlet, but to produce the best results you would have to shell out $40,000 - $60,000 for a used set of primes.
I was very tempted to buy a RED One late last year, but I'm holding off for a while, as I want to see what the big hitters have up their sleeves!!!
Oh, before I forget, still no news on the plate I'm sorry to say, but I'm still trying!!
Hope all's well, take care.

Regards & best wishes
