I'd also expect a detachable lcd for that kind of $$$.
Even if it could, you don't want to rely on the lcd to pull focus because you just can't. External monitor or a z-finder are your only alternatives.

Something that can make the quicker steps with a smooth transition.
Then this could become a seriously viable option.
But if they did that, who the hell would buy the manual focus only c300?
It's a very "niche" market - video (that needs good focus).
and because of that, we have things like this:

Wireless hdmi (Cube) does lag far too much for pulling focus.
I don't like z-finders or EVFs because of the % of time the camera is away from my body and moving around.
I don't like monitors because i can't justify spending $500-$6400 on a screen when we live in an ipad world.
The apps that can drive DSLRs are awesome!
But for some reason they're all missing video functions (like record).
And of course, lag over usb.
We live in a very cool world.
Just a few dumb caveats holding us back.
