    Just finalising my accessories for the Camera but there is no mention whether the AC power supply supports 240V.

    thanks in advance

    it will do US voltage.
    Saw one the other day in Switzerland, I assume it works there too.

    thanks, ive took a chance and ordered it. Its a universal camera so I'd assume they would make the power supply that was too

    Hi Karl

    I asked a similar question about the Charger

    To which Rob came back (in typical very quick RED team response time)

    I'd be assuming that the same design would carry through with the adapter.
    Note: Thats an assumption though, :) but RED comes across as being on the ball for things like this.

    Thanks Draegar.... I think we're all getting nervous now it's time to place our final accessories order and are double checking everything.

    It took me about 2.5 hours to go through the basic production kit and all the spare bits. I think I've got a handle on it now although I'd like Red to check it through so I dont suddenly reliase Im missing a bracket or adaptor after it's shipped

    Yes the AC power supply is rated for 100V - 240V 50/60Hz.

    I can certainly appreciate that, I'm still working on my kit loadout. I'd be interested on what you settled on if you're up for it.

    OK I ordered, after long deliberation and reading countless posts on here :

    LCD
    EVF
    power pack x 2
    ac power adaptor
    CF module
    Red Drive
    Basic Production Pack
    Handle left
    Top handle Extension
    Side handle x 2
    bolt set x 2
    steel rod 12" x 2
    top mount
    Universal mount x 2
    CF 8G card (only 1, it'll do for tests until 16G comes out)
    Spare LCD Cable


    Actually I found the whole of this process a bit annoying. On the Red site there is nothing to say what parts you need to fit what parts togther. There should be some kind of video or even better a 'build your own' flash programme that lets you customize your kit and adds all relevant adaptors and screws as you drag and drop parts onto the camera.

    I still think I may have missed something. Fortunately someone on Reduser sent me a document that seemed to show you need universal mounts to then attach the side handles to (and you need rails too I believe).

    over $120000 in accessories in total and it may not be enough..... ouch :-)
