The Red One ultrahigh-definition camera gave us the next bit of proof of its viability, with the Red Digital Cinema company releasing its first official demo footage on the company's website. It's not the full 4K footage allegedly shot by the Red One and shown at the IBC convention in Amsterdam last month, but this is the first officially-released video from the company's Mysterium image sensor.
It's a slow-downloading 100MB file, and it's just 1K resolution—hardly even high-def yet—but still, it's something. Looks like those burglars really didn't get their hands on the good stuff last week.
Anyway, if Red Digital Cinema can actually deliver this 4K camera for $17.5K, I'm pumped.

For those people out there who still disregarded the Red One from day one, it is now becoming clear that the camera stands up well in filming conditions. Yes there have been teething problems along the way (heat problems etc) but more and more people are using the camera and being more than satisfied with the resulting images.
The Red One camera is becoming available throughout the UK for hire for those who cannot afford to buy one. Camera Speed has already delcared the rates it is hiring the camera for.
