Anyone went to the Sony FS7 event today? They showed of the NX70 and PMW200 too.

If anyone is thinking of getting the FS7, do try it out first hand before getting. The whole shoulder mount ready out of the box is frankly pretty hyped up. It doesn't balance well. Too front heavy. The build in shoulder pat is too small. This cam really needs a proper VCT.
Also, the implementation of the hand grip could be a lot better. This cam feels like a rush job.

Body heard is abt S$10k+. With the 28-135 abt S$13k+

Picture is good as expected. 150fps at HD is great.

was reading up newsshooter.com on the handling and quirks of the camera. something worth considering if one wants to use the fs7 in the field.
