DvSLRs and RED Scarlet

What a difference a few days makes.

There's a photo of the fixed lens over a scarletuser, and those who really want a high quality 2/3" RAW cam are again very optimistic. They accept that it will no longer be $3k and are hopeful for a quick shipping schedule. The whole mood has shifted.

BTW, the lens will support electronic control. I assume that this means a motorized zoom. I'm not sure about OIS or the balance between mechanical and electronic focus.

Of course, the real news won't come until the end of the month, when RED makes some more official announcements.

Best wishes to the RED development teams.
