Why can you not accept that your situation may not be the same as mine or anybody elses for that matter? There are people who want to create and the 7D may very well be the best tool for them right now. Months down the road when Red finally releases the Scarlet, it might be an even better option for some....but not for all. I have no desire to get a 2/3" camera as in addition to the camera body and all the other bells and whistles, I would need to buy all new glass to go with it. Instead of that, I can get a 7D and make money with it as well as improve my filmmaking skills by shooting instead of waiting and I can set aside money for the S35 Scarlet which will be significantly better than the 2/3" and not make me have to go out and buy a bunch of new lenses to replace the ones I already own and like.
I could not care less if somebody on the board wants to pass on the 7D and wait indefinitely for Red to release their camera (and hopefully for it to actually work) and you shouldn't care if people want to buy a camera right now so they can work right now.
