With lens mount the Mini is approximately 5lbs.

The NAB press release state the Mini would ship by May. So it seems Arri made good on the shipping projection. Between the two units, alot of firepower for sure

unfair, need to compare MINI with a WEAPON

 

[CK Olsen]

its so cute!

Any pictures of an Epic and weapon side by side in the same frame- I'd like to see that.

I agree.

Veve, how long ago did you place your deposit? Curious as to how long the backorders are.

Also, is the Alexa logo still a "decal vinyl sticker" or have they burned in the logo into the body?

The demo model I saw last week had bits of the logo falling off.

It's amazing how 8K Weapon will be even smaller than that...

 

[Wil Wong]

Nice to see the Epic is still smaller and neat looking. The mini looks a bit plain in my opinion.

haha it'll have to wait until we get our Weapon, then I'll post pictures MINI/WEAPON and EPIC/WEAPON

Arri will be supplying these quite slowly as the demand has surpassed supply by a mile!

The Alexa logo seems to be a metal plate stuck inside the body. See picture attached.

TELL US MORE!!

We rent Preston and Arri.

In the USA - Preston is the market leader but 8-9 months back ordered. Even Robert Keslow has to wait. And wait. And wait.

C-Motion actually has the best technology IMO - and I look pretty deep under the hood - and they have nailed it - C-Motion is not very well know in the USA. I'm gonna try to change that - because ... if you look at their current lineup - it's actually the top of the game at the moment - from a pure technology and quality perspective.

There is a reason that ARRI collaborated with C-Motion them to create the Cforce Mini motor for the Alexa Mini instead of ARRI making motors themselves.

And this is why I have partnered with them for an integrated solution for the OMOD W-Pro and ES-Pro. Because they have the best tech. Period.

Thanks Kem!

Nicely surprised to hear him praising CMotion. We're not the only ones it seems

Good to know when content distributors start demanding true 4K and not upscaling. If there are so many around then I will eventually be able to deliver true 4K as a sale pitch for choosing my gear instead hahaha :lol:
