It is very affordable for the purpose it is meant for. Why do people have this attitude that "every" camera should be designed for their needs. People link to these cameras and other "niche" cameras to look and marvel at more than "yes, I need that in my next shoot". This camera is an amazing product that even if it was cheaper people would ***** and moan because they would buy it not knowing what it is meant to do. It probably has crap DR, color fidelity, etc. but that stuff doesn't matter for the people it is intended for...
He is making a good point in that there is way too much snarking going on lately of which I agree 100%.....just look at the comments a few made about Barry Green and the DVX200....and it's the way some people are saying/posting things...things are being posted that one would never say to someone else in person.....there are better ways to get one's opinion across.....
To a scientific community that might need to film in near zero darkness, this camera is just a drop in the bucket. It's not meant for you. But someday that tech in this camera will make it's way to you and you will buy it at Bestbuy with a kit lens and a free handbag. Might even come with a lens cloth.
Nope, I don't work for Canon.
