To be honest, much of the negativily that surrounds the AF100 is entirely our fault - if we were a few guys meeting monthy, smoking cigars and chatting about our cameras in seclusion, no one outside the "users" would pay attention to any of the criticism. Unfortunately, it's out there every day in a public forum and, as I've often said before, other people read these forums. All of us want an improved AF-whatever, but that has been construed as bashing... it isn't.
Except for the few who seem to have personal agendas, possibly originated by competing marketing departments, most here are merely trying to let Panasonic Broadcast know what we want in an imprioved model. The AF100 is a very good camera, way better than what was available a mere 2 years ago. 4K is the new Holy Grail I guess, people now believe that "it's like looking out a picture window" is good image-making - but I'm still back there when making good films was the goal.
