My beef is with the overall disrespect and lack of communication to their customers. Basically what it will come down to is cameras arriving on peoples door steps without them knowing what the thing even does. Does it shoot RAW? The spec sheet says yes, the testers say no. BMD Say...well they say nothing as usual! unless they release a statement stating that it doesn't shoot RAW before shipping then they are breaking the law on false advertising. The website clearly says it shoots RAW (not has the potential to shoot RAW) and the last interview with a BMD representative said it will shoot RAW on release. This is why people have put money down! It is why I have put money down! If it then ships without RAW and BMD keep silent as they always do then they are false advertising regardless of what they say it might do in the future.
What are you talking about. BMD has made many statements about the new cameras. Including Christine Peterson posting about them just a few days ago, and there's also the interview on video from the expo in Asia about a month ago. I suspect those aren't the only recent public comments from BMD employees.
Perhaps you should save your dark thoughts for after Aug. 1st, if in fact BMD's self-imposed deadline passes without a sign that shipping has started?
