The DSMC® Interchangeable OLPF System allows you to swap the optical low-pass filter (OLPF) system in your EPIC DRAGON or SCARLET DRAGON®. RED® can modify your camera to the new DSMC Interchangeable OLPF System for free if you have an EPIC DRAGON or SCARLET DRAGON with the fixed OLPF system.
If you cannot send your camera to one of our RED Certified Service Centers, please submit an RMA Support request to get the DSMC Interchangeable OLPF Modification Kit sent to you for $100. You will then need to send back your old fixed OLPF and the fixed OLPF removal tool provided to get a credit of $100, and net a free modification.
Topics covered in this post:
Eligibility
All EPIC DRAGON or SCARLET DRAGON with the fixed OLPF system are eligible for the free DSMC Interchangeable OLPF System modification. Any EPIC DRAGON or SCARLET DRAGON invoiced on or before October 3, 2014 is eligible for the DSMC Interchangeable OLPF System modification.
Turnaround Time
The turnaround time is 1 to 2 business days.
If any issues are detected with your camera during the modification process, RED will repair your camera if your camera is covered under warranty. If any out-of-warranty repairs are needed, RED will provide you with a service quote for the cost of the repair.

$100 Credit

Contact RMA Support at the same RED location that you ordered the DSMC Interchangeable OLPF Modification Kit from.
