Thanks Kristian for the open - ended communication. We now feel you are with us; as much as I know you won't be able to respond to every post, bearing different topics. But the effort is much appreciated.
However, the one issue that I believe is of utmost importance is Compressed Raw to the BMCC.
There hasn't been much uproar about it because it seems most owners of the 2.5k are using it for shorts, docs and commercials. If that was the case, then a few terabytes of hard drive space will suffice. But there are those of us who acquired the cam solely for producing full length features. I don't need to explain the maths, since you very well know the mammoth space requirements involved - including backups.
Reference to what I mentioned earlier; even if there was much uproar about Compressed Raw, that wouldn't help solve anything - now that we know that the 2.5k has a different engineering algorithm all together. Shooting in any format different from RAW, clearly undermines why I'm using the 2.5k as both my A and B cams.
At least it will be comforting to know whether it is planned as a future upgrade. Any information you provide will be greatly appreciated.
