And the fixed lens Scarlet can accept an optional audio module with XLR's?

Yes, the fixed lens Scarlet is compatible with all of the DSMC modules so it will work with the Pro I/O module which has full size XLRs.

Hey Danill welcome to the family :)

We are still discussing mount options.. It seems like an easy solution to just provide whatever mount is wanted but there is a bit if a logistical issue to provide that sort of thing.. But we are discussing solutions.

Possible solution - Offer choice of lens mount, yet have the PL mount as the "default." If you choose PL your RED ships quicker, with slight shipping delay for choosing a different mount.

Trying to find this info but the thread is already huge.

Will the fixed-lens Scarlet body include a microphone? (even if it's low quality)

It would make sense, given that the package is supposed to be ready to shoot out of the box.

This is a big factor for me in purchasing a fixed scarlet. I don't want to buy a I/O module until the FF35 release, and I want somthing extremly low profile for a fixed scarlet. There was a mention of an included mic before (I believe by Jarred). I would appreaciate if one of the Red staff could comment on the existence of a REDMic.

There are optional RED button mics that can plug into the front of the camera brain.

Or you can use external microphones; whatever works best for you.

I wasn't certain that the fixed lens Scarlet would work with all of the DSMC modules. This is great news to me.

To the team:

can you shed some light on the implementation of DRM within the Red Ray platform? It seems to me that this is a direct play into the distribution/exhibition market and would love to hear what you might be willing to share. I've been suspectig that an end-to-end cinema pipeline was the end goal all along; am very much looking forward to seeing that come together.

Thanks,

Todd

Scarlet Interchangeable is a very powerful tool, it just need a 2/3 zoom to be perfect.
16mm zooms are too old to resolve 3K and match with red mini primes; or too expensive if they are good ones.

David Rasberry over at Scarletuser has made a pretty good case for the old 16mm zooms being capable of resolving 3k. The main differences between the old lenses & new 2/3" ENG lenses, for example, are lens coatings & that the quality of the older lenses will depend more on how well they've been maintained, & may require collimation, etc.

Btw Jarred, we will see the possibility to start uploading TIFF files in to REDCINE X so that we can start play with the still files, in preparation for Epic? :-)
