Oh LCD Please!

Is it too much to ask for a proper LCD/loop to be built off of the handle of fs700?
I'm so frustrated with 3rd party remedies, arms and rods.
They (Sony) have other offerings that allow this logical placement.

I've been on the fence about moving to the C300 for lack of VFR (and holding out for NAB) but the LCD/viewfinder thing is chapping my ass to no end. I may just jump for that reason alone!
 
It's just how you rig it. I love the way I rig my 7Q. The ergonomics are great and I mostly shoot handheld, where ergonomics are actually really important (as opposed to Tripod). It's strange to say, but with my 7Q hanging off the left side, having the LCD on top is actually better since if it was on the left side, it would be in the way of the 7Q.
 
I think it's strange they didn't make the FS cameras shaped like the EA50. My ea50 is a breath of fresh air but wish it had 700 innards.
