Red One begins to ship

Red One, a video camera that is touted to revolutionize documentary and movie film making, will begin to ship the initial 25 units this Friday. They cost a cool $17,000 each, boasting an 11.4 megapixel sensor and the ability to capture up to 60 frames per second – double that of typical high-end HD camcorders. The modular based design works in its favor as well, enabling users to add different rigs, lenses, and other accessories according to your needs – allowing you to capture images in a lower quality. Currently, directors such as Peter Jackson and Steven Soderbergh are already using it.
