F3 ouptuts up to 60fps via SDI...
only the Gemini can handle this so far in the under 10.000.- price range....

Not true; you could use a Blackmagic UltraStudio 3D with a Thunderbolt connection to a MacBook Pro and get 1080p60 via Dual-Link SDI from the F3 for under $3,000.

It's one of those "on-set laptop-y solutions", but still, it would work just fine.

acceptable for studio setups, but starts getting wonky when you are doing field work, run and gun, or just about any situation where you have less control in your environment. computer capture is used all the time, but isn't bullet proof. software crashes, drives slow down and drop a frame, etc. not saying it happens all the time, i'm sure a lot of ppl do it with a lot of success. but a device designed to do only one thing, and one thing only typically in my experience works better.
