Red Menace

I need one of these cameras. Or two. This is the deal; entrepreneur Jim Jannard who is famous for founding the Oakly eyewear company started Red Digital Camera Company. This is a company that seems to be doing everything right. They even nabbed red.com.

All the buzz about this camera is because it promises super-high resolution at consumer prices. No one can get their hands on one just yet, but Peter Jackson ("Lord of the Rings") shot some promotional footage with the camera and supposedly loved it.

With a 4520 X 2540 resolution, this Super 35mm is a mind-blower at 12-Megapixels.
