Nikon takes over cinema camera manufacturer Red

The manufacturer of professional video cameras Red comes under the wing of Nikon. This comes after Red sued Nikon in 2022 for alleged patent infringements.

Yellow buys Red: Nikon today announced that the traditional manufacturer with the yellow logo is taking over the company Red (proper spelling "RED"). Red mainly manufactures video cameras for professional use, such as for cinema productions.

The US company Red was founded in 2005 and currently employs around 220 people. Red probably became known to a wider audience through the Red Hydrogen One smartphone, which became a flop after the full-bodied announcement. Red has not manufactured any smartphones since then.

My interest in IT and writing landed me in tech journalism early on (2000). I want to know how we can use technology without being used. Outside of the office, I’m a keen musician who makes up for lacking talent with excessive enthusiasm.
