Scarlet and the Titanium Canon Mount - Has anyone got it yet?

[Steve Murray]

My friend who ordered a Ti Mount Nov 1 got his email Thursday... so pretty sure I will get an email soon for SO# 50906...

My friend who ordered a Ti Mount just before Scarlet day on Nov 1 got his email Thursday... so pretty sure I will get an email soon for SO# 50906...

Then it sounds like RED really is (finally) cutting through their backorder list. That's great news!

You are confused. Read my post again because you apparently misunderstood what I wrote.

"Ti Canon Mount Scarlets have not yet started to ship. RED is still fulfilling pre-11/3 Ti Canon Mount orders."

Notice the part that says "Pre-11/3?" Rafael stated that he ordered his Ti Canon Mount on November 11th. Since when does November 11th come before November 3rd?

Also Trevor, if you have issues with me for whatever reason, send me a PM so we can sort it out. I've noticed a bit of hostility from you over the past few weeks in response to my posts around the forum and I'm starting to find it irritating.

Chill dude. The issue is you get ahead of yourself a lot of the time here... take a breather dude.

Again, you pretty much answered your own question. Rafael ordered an individual Ti Canon mount... those orders, to my understanding, were to be shipped before the Scarlet Ti packages.

Chill pill... breathe... maybe a glass of water to help it go down.

Trevor, with all due respect - Brian has a point. Why would a stand-alone Ti Canon mount have a preference over Ti Canon mount ordered with Scarlet? You must have missed the fact that the wast majority of the Ti Canon Scarlets were ordered on the 3rd and the stand-alone Ti Canon mount in question was ordered on the 11th...

Just saying...

I understand, thanks Peter. Just saying there's a lot more at play than just when an order was placed, as we can clearly see from the Scarlet-X shipping patterns. I say trust the system... everyone will get their orders when they get them... in the mean time, it's wise to not count on having your gear for work until it's in hand.

Doesn't it take a lot more time to build and QC an entire camera system than it does to do the same with just the mount alone?

This 11/11 order fulfillment is a great sign that the backlog of mount orders is cleared, and Ti EOS Scarlet production can begin. We should see some allocation notices this week if this is true.

Exactly.

Then your understanding was incorrect. RED is shipping all the Ti Canon Mounts ordered before November 3rd first. After those orders have been fulfilled, they will ship both individual Ti Canon Mounts and Scarlets with Ti Canon Mounts simultaneously, but in the order that the orders were placed.

I know Trevor. We are all just at the edge of our seats way too excited to get ours. Can You blame us?

And I am not planing on the gear to arrive for my jobs (that much anyone should understand), but the jobs just keep coming in and I can't turn them down in this economy - even if it means I am barely breaking even having to rent a full-blown Epic in the meantime. At the very least I keep my clients happy, if not my bank account...

I want nothing more then to get mine and start posting constructive feedback and footage instead...
The other day on my way back from proper paid job in NARA, for which I have rented the Epic, we arrived back in Tokyo at 3AM, so I took the camera with the 17-50 RPZ and drove right up to Mt. Fuji to get some sunrise footage before having to return the camera...:



It was -13˚C (8˚F) and I shot the whole time-lapse sequence over 2 hrs. Needless to say the camera worked flawlessly and the timelapse looks stunning even in 2K. As anyone shooting time-lapses of sunsets/sunrises will attest - such a shot is impossible with any other camera (save for the Scarlet). Without HDRx this would have been either underexposed to start with, or overexposed to end with - or most likely both...

Patiently waiting for mine...

Don't tell me that was shot on an EPIC... That looks AMAZING!
