I think it looks great.

But Blackmagic will have version 2 out before version 1 has made it to the dealers.

I would have preferred an SSD bay as CFAST 2.0 is waaaaay to expensive just now, although the budget atomos CFAST 1.0 cards may be ok for those shooting in 1080 APR.

Looks well thought out. I wish they would do a complete bundle with batteries etc, as the headline cost is usually about a grand lower than the cost for a working unit... they could learn from REDs mistakes in this regard.

The test will be noise. The s35 4K sensor in the BMD was noisy.
