Pmw F5 & F55

[yoclay]

First footage will be shown at the end of November at the LA launch and at the Cameraimage show in Europe.

The F5 will NOT replace the F3.

NO dedicated side hand grip with a zoom rocker for the cameras. So, how do you use the servo zoom lens?

All right so let's talk about the one little forgotten elephant in the room.
When's the F3 firmware upgrade coming and how does it sweeten the deal?
Looks to me like the only camera that has gotten ignored in all of this.
I am watching my newly purchased cam sinking like a stone.
