But if the markets not there for rental or hire whats the point? If you can afford to have a 7D and it happens to make luverly video then thats icing on the cake (effectively for free if its the secondary use). I do think that the Canon cameras are very niche and we wont find thm making to many in roads to TV or film production. Shooters in those fields rely on more robust equipment that gaurantees some minimum performance. In a couple years RED might replace it for free, thats what they are doing with current Red Ones ;) You keep dreaming about Scarlet and I'll keep dreaming about a 5DmkII....

But I'm still going to be watching developments over there very carefully. The trouble is I know that if I ever were to buy one of those camera's I would probably be utilising it to 1/10 of it's potential. I'm not making feature length narratives or doco's for 35mm film out's. If I got one, it'd be pure self indulgence and 10 years from now when the whole rig is worth about $2K! :) I can dream though!

RED is an expensive game. Forgot to mention the pro I/O module, recording media and assoicated recording media module, audio, and then cables to match.

And then you need an absolsutely absurd amount of processing power to chew through the footage. Think Core-i7 mac pro with RED's proprietary grpahics card, the redrocket.... Before long, you've spent more on this camera than the price of a new car.
