how long until official disclosure

[cckid]

Hi Jim,

If possible please tell us how long will it take the red team to reveal at least some basic features of the upcoming Scarlet ....the top 5 priority thread makes it pretty clear what the potential customers expect foremost about Scarlet, but my question when we can expect some basic disclosure of this upcoming beauty we've been all fantasizing so much about for about a year now...so we can keep our imagination on ground level...basically a short info teaser would be nice before making the official nab revelation....

I totally agree. It will be very disappointing if a lot of us shows up at NAB looking to purchase Scarlet and it is nothing we can use.

Well, I think Red would keep this for themselves until they are very clear about the new camera. So I think we have to be patient...I read somewhere Jim wants this camera totally finished and ready before it goes out to the market. Maybe they aren´t totally clear about Scarlett´s features right now, so they won´t reveal until they made up their minds...

I've never seen so much hype about a new camera. Jim's a genius!

They said the announcement will come at NAB. So early April.

so we speculate for 3 months

Weird, there was a thread asking nearly this same question and it was deleted yesterday.

They have to see what we want first then they will build it! :-)

But...they have talked about this camera since NAB'07...

do you really think it will be "nothing we can use"? i don't need one but i want one and maybe i'll find a need for one in time. but if it turns out to be an overpriced hd camcorder (highly doubtful based on redone features), i'll just walk over to the sony and panasonic booth. red wants to enter this prosumer market and there are a lot of options out there.
