I'm considering this camera but I don't see any info on whether it has a stop motion mode for animators. Anyone know?

If you mean single frame exposing, than yes it does. It can also do time lapse shots.
Cheers

Awesome, thank you. I think I'm sold. Just can't find one in stock...

One more question: Does it have a power optical zoom control? Not sure how that works if the lenses are interchangeable. Do telephoto lenses have gears or motors in them? (I don’t want digital zoom.)

No, it doesn't. If that's what you need, rather go for the BM broadcast, but the lens you'll need is not cheap.

Yes, Servo EanG or better yet Cine Zooms are not inexpensive. I spent almost as much for my Angenieux B4 HR Servo Zoom on the Ursa Broadcast, as I did for the Camera. That said, B4 Servo zooms on the Ursa Broadcast are not controlled by the camera directly, but either through the camera by a remote, like the CCU control on an ATEM, or a dedicated remote, or the zoom rocker on the lens controller (which is connected to the camera).
