...And another two key points in the C300mk2's failure was: late to market, and priced significantly higher initially than the FS7
FWIW, I don't think Canon or the market considered the C300 MKII a sales failure, they still sold a boatload of them and I still see them used all of the time today.
I know that we use ours quite often still. It's just that once things started rolling, the FS7 became the "it" camera because of 4K 60, high base ISO, better feature set
overall. Sony definitely sold a lot more FS7s, but it appears that the opposite is happening with the FX9 versus the C300 MKIII, I hear and see a LOT more buzz
about buyers wanting the C300 MKIII and am hearing little about users dumping FS7s for an FX9, even though the FX9 is a far beter camera IMHO.
