RED Digital Cinema anounces small camera

[David Saraceno]

I see that RED is in a shipping delay:

It's likely that will affect the pocket cam I would venture.

im sure the mini would go into pre-production regardless

Another production hold at 10-25-07. Still no info on the "pro" consumer cam. Maybe a plastic box at NAB?

Anyone considering Vision Research and their Phantom cameras?

I'm sure they have their hands full with Red One issues, so I wouldn't expect to see a mini any time soon. Without the complete success of Red One, there won't be a mini, so they're rightfully focusing their efforts.

It's interesting, but when browsing their store, I noticed something odd.
They've got a pretty serious price markup on the ZF 100mm Makro-Planar lens.
Why do I need to buy that lens from them for $2100 when B&H and most other places are selling it for $1500?
It doesn't appear to be a rehoused lens.
Because if it was rehoused, that might be worth considering, but it's the same lens - so what justifies the $600 price increase?
