I'm in northwest florida and further in line than those here (#975). Good to see there are others in FL who will also have rentals available for projects when I'll need 2 cameras!

[Keith Alan Morris]

I'm the original poster. I'm doing a 3 camera DVX shoot right now til i can rent a Red from one of youse fancypants rich boys. jk. I'd like to check out those cooke lenses if possible. do they work with the DVX? UCF has the adapter I can borrow (i'm in the grad film program)... i heard any adapters/lens hookups lose a couple stops of light... sigh... doing lots of low light shoots lately and it makes me nervous... checking on what adapter they have now... its the good one of the original two... i have a good carmount if anyone needs to borrow it.

Is anyone from Florida going to NAB?

[Keith Alan Morris]

Cool, Mike! Keep us Florida folk posted on how it goes and good luck! Man, I wish I could go... I'll be stuck in the editing bay working on crappy-looking DVX footage.

I've compiled a list of links to those covering NAB and will post an exhaustive list here soon, just for those of us that couldn't go.

[RentCam]

Myself and our chief tech representative will be at NAB 2007 from the 15th - 19th. The list of NAB RSS feeds / sites is pretty extensive already. However we'll have pertinent product info & photos posted to our blog (http://rentcam.blogspot.com/) as the info becomes available. We are bit more discerning as to what we post to the blog, so you have some pretty rich content / info / photos / details available. Throughout the show, I will try and stay active here as well.

Placed my order first thing Monday at 9:03 am. Email me at km9000 [at] gmail.com if anyone wants to rent at a great price in the Orlando area. I'll be sending it out with a tech.

Ummm, come November...I just heard.

And I was timestamped #429 NAB2007, at 9:03am. Sigh...

[ActiveCamera]

I have #568 that will be available for rent in Miami with Ultra Primes and Optimo 24-290 zoom. I will be checking in with Mike at Aqua Video to see how the housing is coming along.

Patrick Longman

[Michael Hastings]

Pat:

I'm number 206 but probably won't have PL lenses so we probably want to talk out about joining forces for awhile until they get to #568. My guess is I will try the Birger mount for Canon EOS for the underwater stuff - but how wide do you go with your ultra Primes?

Also I ran into Champe Barton in the RED booth at NAB and it turns out he is number 216 so right behind me. He lives in Hollywood (Florida).

Housing will commence quickly once cameras start to ship as I have a gentleman with a very early number that is interested and will be letting me get my hands on it for a little while.

PS for others I am in Weston which is a Ft. Lauderdale suburb about 20 miles from Miami airport and 15 from Ft. Lauderdale airport.

If you ordered at NAB you are behind the 1500 or so reservation holders. I think the posted schedule was for those first 1500. I think they went to a different numbering system for new orders so they wouldn't be tipping their hand on exactly how many are sold.

[Keith Alan Morris]

yep, thats why i say "timestamped #429 NAB2007"--they messed up my order at first on that fateful day, and so we went back and forth on the phone straightening everything out, where they told me directly that i was the 429th order that day. (they're sending out cameras by when people were timestamped, bc the ordering system was messed up.) so i guess i'm 1929 if there were 1500 reservations... i might take off my "#429 NAB 2007" on this site so people wont get the wrong idea, plus the November thing, since nobody knows for sure now with the delay...

edit: as per jims comments today, we should know a schedule within 5 weeks!

Hi all,

I'm looking for a Red owner/ operator for a shoot in Trinidad in Oct/ NOv. Will anyone based in florida have their system by then... and be available?

betweenfriendsfilm@gmail.com

[Michael Hastings]

Hi: Mike in Weston (Ft. Lauderdale) I am res# 206 so should be in the second month or so after shipments start. Jim is supposed to update us on Friday as to the new ship schedule. Based on an email I received I think I am looking at about August for #206. BTW back in the 90s I spent a week in Tobago shooting for the T&T tourist board.

I will be renting or owner/operating. Also will have underwater housing since that is my main business. I have a friend who is number 216 or so, so probably have access to a second camera as well.

What style of shoot is it. I am trying to figure out what accessories, lenses, etc. that I will be purchasing/should be purchasing.

PM or 954 937 6600

It would be great if all the rez holders in FL could meet up and take a look-see--if that person is interested, of course... It wont be like LART, but it would be a great thing, I think.

Hey,

I go every year unless I'm in production, happened last year.

I have a place in Holmes Beach so I'll be doing work with my Red One there & in L.A. The only problem is my order won't be fillfulled until next year...but nice to know who's around the corner.

Maybe someone will organize a RED get together. Anyone???

Cheers to all!!!

[Elizabeth Lowrey]

Pensacola here. #271.

Hi, Craig. I just ordered my RED yesterday (8/25/07). Last week I took a look at the RED user map and saw your name listed. I actually called your offices and spoke to Ryan, as I was still on the fence about buying the cam at that time.

Anyway, good to know there will be another RED owner in the Pensacola area (I'm in Milton). I probably won't get my cam until Mayish, but, as I told Ryan, I'd love to come see you guys shoot something with your RED after you get your cam.:biggrin:

[Craig Meadows]

Hi, Eclaire/Claire lol. Yes, Ryan told me you called. Congrats on the RED order as it is certainly going to be revolutionary for all of us. Once we get it, set up, and dialed in you and anyone else in our are are more than welcome to come on by for a look. Call me anytime as I love geeky talk about RED and other production stuff!

[Joseph Regner]

South Florida, Pembroke Pines/Weston, FL area here....

Sadly I'm not planning on being an owner because of $$$$ but I've followed the RED since day one and if anybody needs another body for shoots I'd be willing to help out. My work is mainly in TV, but I love getting into all types of production. Also since we're out here on the water I also have fellow coworkers who are divers, and I'm also an avid Jet Skier if it every becomes useful. All of them know about the Red and would love to work with one if help is needed.

Congrats to all of you who are getting one or two, or three... hehe.

You can e-mail me at JosephRegner@Gmail.com

Early Red owners in Florida: Any of you guys interested in hosting a little get together when you take delivery of your camera? I think you'll have quite a few people interested in helping you test the cameras. Me for one, and I'll bring the beer. Might be a good time to start a Florida Red User Group, too. FRUG!

I think these are the first 5 owners in Florida:

193 Peter Sassi, Deerfield Beach
206 Mike Hastings (AquaVideo), Weston
210 Dave Cox, Stuart
216 Champe Barton, Hollywood
271 CraigFPG, Pensacola

Any takers?

Sounds like fun actually. Would be great to network with other RED users. Being in the lost panhandle it would be nice to make a trip to say Orlando for a initial informal RED party..ahem, I mean user group. :)

[Elizabeth Lowrey]

Can't guarantee I'd attend but would definitely be interested if time and travel plans permit. Won't receive my cam until spring, though, so if it's before then I'd be party crashing.:whistling:

If we do something in Orlando, I can probably get 1 of the 2 TV stations I work with to let us use their studio. But the early owners are in South FL or Pensacola, and may want to stay closer to home. (But I guess you're willing to travel).

depending on possible rentals I would be happy to get together with you.

Great! Just let me know your rental schedule as we get closer. One of the TV stations is right next to the convention center, so that might be a convenient place to meet.

Even if you don't have the camera, it would be a good chance to get together with other Red enthusiasts.

If everyone wants to email me their name and phone number from the people that are near Orlando and want to network and meet sometime. Also their Red# and if they would be willing to bring to show. I will then email or call everyone when we are ready to set a date and time. That way we are sure everyone that wants to come knows when.

We also could meet sometime before anyone gets a their Red just to network.

Okay, here's a suggestion. I belong to the Orlando Film Industry Professionals Meetup Group. It's just a bunch of people from all different disciplines in the film industry, and we have a casual get together once a month. The next meeting is Sat. Oct. 13 at 8pm at McRaney's Tavern in Winter Park. Why not just meet up there? If you're doing film or TV, it's always nice to meet other people in the industry.

I have RED reservation #206 and Champe (Champe Barton has RED #216. We are both in Ft. Lauderdale and if you have watched the schedule RED has pushed us back to a November 30th delivery. I have a feeling that will be pretty accurate.

Mike 954 937 6600.

PS We have already built the first underwater housing (got help from Gibby and sharky and Gibby's number 8.) There is a thread about it search for Gibby's #8. Also the underwater bubble blowers user group thread.

Hey,

I would organize one but I live in Holmes Beach close to Sarasota and Tampa area. I can't see many people driving from say Ft. Lauderdale like AquaVideoRed206 and Champe or Miami to here. Maybe have a more cental area that all don't have to come a far.

Also, I don't have a camera yet until next year...but that's not the point...just getting together to share ideas, chat about a rental proposal, or just get drunk!

Just good o'l fun.

Dear Floridians,

As of this moment, I find myself in Miami, taking a week off, visiting my old man, and bored to hell. I'm a humble Brazilian freelance director, sometimes doubling as cinematographer, beggining my carreer, doing some lousy gigs, and refreshing myself on the occasional not-so-lousy gig. :biggrin:

I would love to buy another reduser a beer or two around here, to know a procution house nearby or even to help out on a set. Anybody feels like it, please PM me, I'm here until november 5th, so let's say sunday.

By the way, anybody got any god tips on the indie rock scene in Miami (or anything alternative to do by nights)? Every place I go out for a drunk, I only see people with shirts tucked in their pants and cashmere sweaters over their shoulders... Weird! :wacko:

Cheers to you all,

Julio Taubkin

[Craig Meadows]

Who else here in Florida are in the 100-300 number cameras shipping now? Just wired my funds today and expect my camera (#271) very soon. Just curious.

Craig, congrats on the camera! Elizabeth Lowrey here of Amore Productions/Triumvirate Filmworks in Milton (I spoke on the phone with your partner a while back). I won't be seeing mine until April, but I remain keen to pop over to P-cola and drool over yours once you get it.:tongue:

I am certainly interested in getting together with the rest of you. I guess I also have pretty good contacts with the local TV stations. We have a monthly meeting of the SBE (Society of Broadcast Engineers), which meets in the next room from where I sit every day that I'm in the office.
I hadn't read through this thread for a while as the delivery schedule has been somewhat unpredictable. I will be interested in renting mine out when they come. (Have 2 on order.)

Oh, for those who are wondering, not that it matters but the name is Dave Neathery.

I'm also interested in that film makers group.

Red #210 is currently testing in the central Florida. Today Zeiss 35mm Superspeeds. Tomorrow Angenieux 35mm 25-250. So far everything has been great! What a wonderful experience. We are officially in biz and are located in Stuart, Florida, but we go everywhere.
