No kidding...I'd love to use that building as the location for my Hero Fest film...has a great "superhero" feeling to it! Why can't all places of business make cool buildings like that, it would make coming to work a little more enjoyable.
 
I went to a Oakley Christmas party once (It's just down the road from me), it's a cool place. They have jet fighter ejection seats as seats in the lobby :)

Oh yeah - you have to love the Pirate Flag they fly (which you can see in the first photo but it's wraped around the pole).
 
Hmm, actually I'm a bit dissapointed after reading it. There was no promise of any footage. Seems like they will just have "blow ups" of the info they had previously on their website.
 
It could be a dream if this camera will be available after Nab, I know it's only a dream...we are waiting Nab only for other info about it, I really like to use this camera...and I'm a little tired to rovine my eyes on my too bright Philips 202p4 crt screen...this crt just had destroyed my eyes...

We have been clear on the timeline since day one. Non-working prototypes and the system program, including pricing at NAB. Posted footage from the full size sensor in Fall. 1st complete cameras together by the end of the year. That is our target timeline. The only reason to be disappointed is if you expected something different than we have said all along. Or if we promised something and didn't deliver. We have great test sensor footage now. But we will not show footage to the community until it is full resolution and "worthy of scrutiny". If you are waiting to see a full functioning finished camera with footage, accessories and ready to ship... just check in at the end of the year. If you want to follow along on the progress as it unfolds... stick around. The ride will be worth it.

Actually, at no point has RED said they would have a shooting prototype of the new camera system or footage at NAB. Thay have said that they will have non-shooting prototypes of the camera at NAB. They've come a long way in a short period of time for such a complex project. In the months after NAB I'm sure they will be announcing their field testing schedule and then letting us know when to expect to see some sample footage. Having personally interviewed Jim Jannard for a pending magazine article that will be released on Monday, I can assure you that at the RED NAB booth, on the RED web site, in my interview, etc., there will be a wealth of new info and prototype images to feast on. I'd be highly surprised if anybody is dissappointed on Monday!

You are correct man Jim, I'm still lookin' for my first camera so I'm bit tired (and my crt monitor really destroys my eyes, hope to change this monitor soon), so I'm different animal here :( I'm also a comic drawer so the eyes, you know, are already fatigued...mix this with my too brighty crt and wait for a camera for years...
I'm sure you bring us the revolution of cinema world, I'm really happy to have met you here!
Hope you had some time to see "Iron 3" of Kim Ki-duk, just suggested some day ago :) do you remember?
Keep up good work , Jim!
