RED Introduces the SCARLET-W

December 11, 2015 • Leave a Comment

First we were given the Weapon. Than came the 4.5K Raven. Now another announcement has been made. The new Scarlet-W will ~~round off~~ (+ Epic-W) the awesome new DSMC² line of cinema cameras. The good people at RED are not forgetting their current Scarlet owners and giving them a break on price if they would like to upgrade. The new SCARLET-W gleams with that familiar battleship gray color its known for, It also shares the same compatibility as to that of the WEAPON and RAVEN with accessories. The SCARLET-W shares the same Dragon sensor as the WEAPON capable of 5K motion up to 60fps with 16.5+ stops of dynamic range. Full specs can be seen below. The new SCARLET-W should start shipping as soon as March 2016.
