Yes, an excellent first look. I'm hoping the rocket scientists at Magic Lantern will be able to give it their overlays and whatnot. Also, a battery holder/grip would come in very handy too, plus a zacuto style loup. Phil's footage on the Eye was very nice - well done PB!
I suppose they have in mind all cameras to share the same firmware, so when the Production camera gets ready, they can concentrate on adding features to the firmware affecting all three cameras. ...Unless they don't push a MK2 on NAB 2014 lol
VERY VERY misleading review if this was ALL I knew about the camera. he suggests you need about 10 batteries and need extra equipment to offload media and compared a point and shoot favourably to it. Utter Utter rubbish. All his facts are known to the community months ago. Only for fans of Philip Blooms voice and haircut I'm afraid.
When reviewing the BM cameras he NEVER gets across the idea that their is NOTHING even remotely comparable on the market and both cameras could cut with RED or ARRI without too much jarring. Just silly. Time to let go of the DSLR bloggers and get some narrative filmakers into the conversation. It's taken years of dodgy codecs, stupid 35mm adapters and crippled cameras and some people don't recognise the revolution when it actually comes.
If you don't like other people's review method, you should publish some reviews of your own. Only way to do something properly is to do it yourself....right? You've made your Bloom point in one locked thread already. I don't think you need to keep repeating it, spoiling other people discussing his review in more measured tones.

If you and others didn't feel the need to keep telling me I don't have a right to my opinion I would simply post my opinion on it, which I already have done and that would be it. Accept I have a right to a negative opinion and we're done here...If you Keep directing responses to me then I will keep replying to you. see how it works now...a discussion.
