The DHL man has just left ... and took with him my beloved RED ONE #937.

I had 4 great years with this wonderful camera, but time has come to move on to EPIC X.
(I had postponed the packing for days now, but finally I´ve overcome my reluctance to let it go. I wonder whether anyone else had the same feelings to part with this camera).

here are some pics for memory´s sake:

Just out of curiosity. Are the returned RED Ones being consigned to the crusher Sony Betacam style or are they being re-issued to buyers after a check and service ?

I don't miss that heavy batery sucking pig beast one bit, and neither will you once you get your new camera ;-)

Yes the R1 was and still is a great camera, really!!

However once you'll get your EPIC... Well, let me say that there will be no tears or any remembering of the R1 after that... ;)

That's how we received the EPIC (no more tears for the R1)

yeah, my wife took a picture of me embracing my red one before it was packed up and sent back. find peace in that you will quickly forget your red one love when the epic-x bombshell arrives at the door.

I had similar feelings when I sent my R1 in to be traded out for my Epic. Man that camera helped me learn a lot and help brake down some walls of doubt by producers. I still miss it but man the new one is a lot more........well everything and doesnt give me a sore back at the end of the day.
Good by old friend......

I still miss my R1. It's like my kid went off to college or something. She doesn't call she doesn't write...
