Speaking of new product launches

Hard to peek at something you can’t really see! 🙂

I am certainly interested in where RED are going with this product. It might be a while before we get a product launch down here at the bottom of the world and I can see what a 4V screen actually is.

This has to be one of the toughest products to market, maybe ever?

[Michael Gissing]

Thanks Oliver. OK it’s starting to shape up. All this talk of a phone but it seems like the phone part is a byproduct of it being connected to a network to view content in 4V. It’s more like a specialist viewfinder that you can also use as a phone. Clever idea.

No doubt it is a camera too but it seems like at this stage there is a separate 8k V180 camera that RED have developed to capture the content. I’m sure it won’t be long before the phone/ viewfinder is the 3D camera too.

Also important is the whole distribution angle of content.

As a RED camera owner, I am excited and also scared for them.
I don’t want them to lose focus of their original path.
Mind you, they are at 8K now and I am still working in 4K 😉
