I will absolutely own one of these. Granted, probably in about 8+ years once the price plummets like the F35, but still....

I really like the way Aaton approached a lot of the conventional thinking of digital cinema. Very interesting and unique.

Anything to view from the camera itself anywhere?

They used to have some Raw sample clips up in DNG format, not that it was of much use because you couldn't use the files using anything but Adobe Camera Raw, unless you had Marquise Tech's NLE which was the only one that had native support. Without any LUTs or profiles, the files would look horribly dark with WB all over the place, I could never get them to look good.

Very little hype for this cam... no reels, stills, software support, touting of capabilities other than sensor-shift and ISO100, etc. I would hope to see more from what's clearly aimed to compete with the Alexa studio.

I played with some Penelope files in Resolve, almost impossible to grade without the right LUT.
Behaves like nothing I ever touched.
What Kolor said, no fun without the right software.

Here are the files, if someone wants to give it a try: http://blog.abelcine.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Delta-Penelope-DNG-files.zip
