I've been googling these lenses every day since I learned about them, and new nuggets keep appearing. The more I learn about them, the more excited I get. I'm really hoping to get my hands on these soon - at least I'll get to see them in person at Cinegear in a couple weeks. Enjoy!

A followup from my earlier video here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAUH5141fKo
This camera is a BIG deal to me, but not for the reasons most folks are excited about. For me its basically the endgame of cinema cameras, at least as I use them, and for the foreseeable future. On one hand, for the fee to upgrade you could make a lot of other choices about lighting gear, support/gaffer equipment, etc. But on the other hand, for me this is the last camera I will need for years, and I am HERE for it.
Keep in mind, your mileage may vary, and I may be a complete moron and wrong about everything I say here. So take with a grain of salt!
If you like these kinds of rants, feel free to subscribe, I have plenty more on the way as I work through the process of filming my first full-length feature.")
