we all glad here about you one of first 5dmk2 shooters.. we hope you don't mind to post some good footage.. ok you're a red fanboy too.. maybe this may bring some advantages.. a red fanboy best $2700 piece of gear owner nowadays.. :umm: bring it to us!
 
You Dog's! I ordered mine from Ritz camera. Being A NY'er Adorama, B&H, and JR all would have cost more. I can't wait for mine too!
 
Thanks for the tip browning, with your tipoff I managed to get an order in and if all holds will get it tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully I can get some time to shoot some RED footage with my canon lenses on Birger and some equivalent with 5D.

As I've mentioned in another thread, I don't look at my 5D purchase as an instead of Scarlet purchase - I see it as a way to upgrade my 40D and my Sony FX7 as my family/budget/easier to carry around video solution into an all in one compact solution that gives me pretty good video and great stills with my Canon glass - until an equivalent/better RED actually ships (probably 6-9 months for a Canon lens mount version) and I will then sell the 5D and take the $900 hit and chalk it up as basically a 6-9 month rental - with some tax benefits this year.
 
Son of a bitch!!! I stepped out for like 20 minutes and missed the FedEx guy.... now I have to wait until 6:30pm to pick it up.

that sucks...mine arrived this morning, but no time to play.
 
My Digital Vista Vision camera has arrived!

Man, this camera is a marvel. To think, all that imaging power in a little 3lb camera with no real moving parts, shooting to CF cards. Unreal.

The video looks quite nice on my 24" at 1080p. I'm planning a trip soon to really see what this baby is capable of.

The camera has an interesting feature to help you focus manually in video/live view mode. You can move a little frame around with a joystick and then hit zoom twice. This gives you a magnified but super clear 3" view of the scene and allows you to pull focus with amazing accuracy.

Doing it on the fly or on a steadicam might be another story, though. :)
