The buttons.....

[goldyprog]

One of my big questions.... what are all the buttons, what each one does, etc. Anyone at NAB take pictures of close-ups of the buttons? Putting pictures together I think I have ID'd the total number, but what they do I am curious about. Are there diagrams or brief descriptions of some of the buttons thus far?

Thanks in advance!

I remember reading one of Mikes articles where he went over the functionality of some of the buttons. Im sure hell jump in and point you in the right direction.

Pic shows most of the buttons functionality. The main button to navigate menus and such is an ipod like scroll wheel/joystick.

Buttons on the final version of the camera will absolutely be labeled.

Here's one of Mike's shots from NAB, should help:

Apparently some of these button labels/functions have already changed since NAB. Just FYI.

That would be my guess, too; even though we were (are?) only weeks away from the first cameras being released, I have a feeling there is still a great deal of fine-tuning going on at the RED camp.

Fine Tuning.
