Red Digital Cinema Camera, a new maker of high-end digital movie cameras, is expanding its turf closer to traditional camera makers such as Canon and Hasselblad.

On Thursday, Red announced a new range of modular camera designs that

it plans to deliver mostly by the coming year and a half that can take not just high-resolution video but plus still images. The move comes just as Canon and Nikon have begun adding video support to their SLR (single-lens reflex) cameras.

Red hopes to ship a large-format camera sensor in 2010.
