This posted online by RED's Jim Jannard:

"What a big day! RED announces the new Scarlet. Canon announces "something really important to Hollywood". Everyone wins.

November 3rd is the day that RED announces all the changes to Scarlet and shipping info. You get to see the future Nov. 3rd. You get to compare RED's latest directly with the newest from one of the "big dogs" in the industry. What a day!

I'll certainly be watching!"


Should be fun!

"November 3rd will likely be the single most important announcement in RED's history. Don't miss it... even if you never intend on buying a camera."

More from Jim:

"November 3rd...

This date will be huge for everyone in this industry.

Canon will announce it's very best effort for digital cinema. RED will announce Scarlet.

A powerhouse and an upstart going head to head. One day.

This is huge for everyone. Wow!

Canon on the red carpet in Hollywood and RED from the garage. Head to head.

The anticipation is incredible. A big moment for all. Really.

It will be telling in a number of ways. Canon can make a huge difference in this industry and has called for everyone's attention. We will all be watching what they are going to do. A few will also be watching what RED is doing.

This will be a great moment in time. The customers win. No matter what.

Anyone in this industry that isn't paying attention on Nov. 3rd doesn't have a pulse. It is like Ali vs. Frasier. I can't wait."

At last an professional. Take, thanks for turning up and doing this, if you know of other people that might like to do an open camera capture format feel free top invite them. The only professionals we have had here have done commercial products we can't afford (SI and Cineform).

To answer your question on preprocessing, what about both. Some people will want to leave it to last, some will want noise processed out for optimal compression first, others will want it all left to last. I think that, for optimal quality at optimal compression, that pre-processing out the noise is best. For those that want to do it cheaper, pre-processing the colors on the shoot might be desirable (documentary). Cineform allows the colors to be nominated separately from the data (they have lookup table I think) which is an strategy that could also work rather than pre-processing them. AS you are, assumably, using the latest OpenGL GPU acceleration, you should have significant reserves of power to do this, particularly if Apple supports next generation chips in up and coming products.

I would like to point you to an few people that you might like to communicate with: Rob Scott, who is back here developing his own capture program, Keith Wakeham, that has been developing an HDSDI film recorder (with an Bayer mode in mind) and the Elphel 333 camera thread, where we have been discussing a number of bayer compression techniques, including FPGA compression.
