way cool!
Thanks for the post. I had a few minutes with the camera at NAB. I thought the specs and the price justified getting some for our facility (I ordered 2). At a minimum, it should make a great green screen studio cam - record right to ProRes 442 or 444 and then into the edit bay. Canon lenses (2X crop factor) are easy to get and depth of field doesn't matter (much) for green screen. I will report back - heck, you can come by for a hands on with the cameras when I get them. Black Magic says delivery in June.
