Dave's compact camera concept (intro)
I've been pondering the Scarlet 1.0.
It was pretty much a perfect cam for me.
Scarlet 2.0 is cool too, and I'll probably end up buying it as an SLR purchase.
That said, I miss (what I perceived as) the 'compact' nature of the first Scarlet spec.
I've been thinking bout what I would want from a 'compact' camera.
What follows is some 3d doodles that I've been fooling around with.
This is a view from the front.
A: Three large user configurable dials for focus, iso, mode, whatever. Wrapped around a large lens/imaging chip assembly
B: The point of having the battery 'out board' is that it is detachable. like a power tool.
Screen
Non-shooting mode. flips up for 'review mode' so operator can scan edit and review footage, set up functions, etc.
The screen rotates around the lens barrel for Portrait/landscape shooting. Also handy for lefties.
Battery
Multiple sizes and shapes can be attached to base of cam.

- big lens
- big battery
- big screen
- compact enough to carry around all day

- A variety of sizes and capacities can be slotted in
- Quick swappable
- Battery has thread underneath for tripods
