I'm with Joseph. I'd be comparing the FF35, even though it's way more expensive than the D700, just for easier comparison. Remember because of the massive difference in sensor size you'd be choosing very different lenses between the D700 and the 2/3" Scarlet so that has to factor into the size/weight consideration. Also remember that the sizes you listed for the D700 include battery, compact flash slot, LCD, grip, controls, lens mount, etc. When you add all that stuff to the Scarlet...
Also it's debatable how much impact it really has on color and dynamic range, but aren't the Mysterium-X DSMCs all 12-bit ADC? The D700/D3/D3x are 14-bit like the Monstro DSMCs. Which may be why Jim told him to skip up to the Epic, rather than suggesting the FF35 Scarlet.
