RED Takes Aim at DSLR Market, Photographers Salivate

RED Takes Aim at DSLR Market, Photographers Salivate | Gadget Lab from Wired.com

Just today James emailed me a link to the thread where Jim Jannard mentions the next product as a DSLR-killer. Worth wading through the fanboys jumping up and down to read Jannard's teasers. The biggest being the obvious one, unlike Nikon and Canon, Red has no legacy tech to support and trun the idea of a DSLR on it's head.

This "announcement" (more like teaser) pretty much confirms the path I predicted way way back when the RED ONE was just theory how many years ago. I enjoying being right, I just wish it didn't take so long!

While Wired has wish list of features they'd like to see here, I don't think this stuff will be cheap, compared to a $499 DSLR. Think more like a top of the line Canon or Nikon, in the $3000 area. They hint that they'll drop the bomb sometime in the new year, wouldn't that be cool if Jim Jannard walked out on stage with Steve Jobs with his new toy?
