Company head Jim Jannard announced in the Red User forum the reactions from the first tests of the RED projector now being announced here. As usual, no information whatsoever on availability, price or specifications; RED is pursuing its usual "When its Ready" strategy. Technology insider Engadget speculates about 3D/laser technology, and we will hold back for the time being.
The post in the user forum:
"After watching a demo of RED's laser projector I've been struggling to find a way to describe it. Comparing it to traditional professional systems is completely inadequate. I have never witnessed 3D that was as bright or brighter as the best 2D projections until now. It generated the best color, best dynamic range and best images I have ever seen in 3D or even 2D. When I learned we were watching at 1/4 of its total resolution I was speechless. It was so clean and so vibrant the only thing I can compare it to is Cibachrome. That's it, a giant moving Cibachrome!"

"Aldey & I got treated to a sneak peak yesterday and we could not stop watching. You have to see it to believe it. I have NEVER seen better projection – from any projector – at any price point. I can’t stop thinking about it. It was beyond stunning.
