However, I'm pretty sure the EVA1 doesn't need an upgrade. Panasonic's EVA1 team members are quite active and transparant about it in the Facebook group.
In any case, I don't agree with your opinion that it's not false advertising. A company shouldn't advertise with product features they don't actually ship, unless they make it very obvious that it requires a future update.
In about every video made during IBC, Blackmagic's team speaks about BRAW for EVA1 and C300 MKII as a current product feature; not as something to be added in the unknown future. Over here for example:
For many people owning these cameras, the BRAW support was what convinced them to order the VA in the first place.
P.s. Here's a comment I just found on Cinema5d while writing this reply. Hate to admit he was right.
Do you think is Bmd Only?
my experience with first Alexa was this :
i connect xlr, i not see signal, i check menu... and no audio menu. Arri answer that they will enable it later
i want to record full sensor signal, Arri tell me that at that time i can record a FHD, later disable downscaling... but they are Arri, they can...
My experience with RedOne? Or do you prefer with Thompson VIper?
just to tell that bmd is not the unique that talk about feature that will add in future. Also first production camera was advised for raw recording, but for months after releasing i could record prores only.
BMD not lie, before to buy a tool i ever check manual, be cause often tools are released before their developing are finished or advertising could have wrong datas.
i understand that you bought exactly for that feature, and is an irritating not found it, but is signed in the manual...
