Hot new render of RED's Scarlet!


So pretty. So chunky. And it’ll fit in the palm of your hand. That’s the lens on the left, where the focus ring will be; the cutaway right at right is either aperture or zoom, most likely aperture since it looks notched. It’s also possible it could be a multi-use wheel. Jannard says in the forum that there are still some surprises left (he cites “competition” though there is no competition with RED at the moment).

Its small size belies its price ($3000-ish) but also its capabilities; it’s able to shoot 3K video at 120fps (I think its 120fps anyway), which is beyond even the most expensive digital cinema cameras being sold for more than ten times the price. I’m looking forward to trying one of these babies out. [via DVICE]
