No mention of Braw in the spec sheets. Wonder why.

It’s a general purpose monitor that could be used with any camera. Remember BRAW is sensor-specific, not workable in general. Now BMD might consider adding BRAW in the future for their own cameras given much of the work has been done already, but in those cases you may have BRAW on the camera and don’t need it on the BMVFG12.

It doesn't make sense. They could say Braw on certain cameras. As is there is no raw.
at all.

I recall Grant saying it's not shipping with BRAW capability, but it will be added in a later firmware update. That might be the reason.

Yes, it's planned for an update after shipping.

Good to know. Are there ongoing plans to add other sdi-raw capable cameras?

Any update on the shipping? I swear when it first went up on the site it said "September" but maybe I imagined it
