I'm sure you are right in some situations, but if you are doing commercials or even some narrative work, it does make an eye-catching prop for your talent to be using!
Congratulations to the team on the camera. It has a lot of good things going for it with a few things better than the BMCC and a few things worse. As we know cameras are a story of trade offs and using the right camera for the right situation. I think it will do well now it's finally approaching the time when they'll ship to new customers (i.e. After the Kickstarters). Would like to see more footage from it. The last samples I saw were so garishly coloured, I couldn't get a feel for what the camera's image will be in common use.
By the way, I own and have used a hand-cranked film Bolex from the 40s. It can be very pleasing.
