Laughing why? Have you seen the prices for a Fujinon with these focal lengths?
A Fujinon 18-85mm T2.0 Premier PL Zoom Lens costs 88 000 USD. Almost 15x more!
What I'm having a hard time understanding is the amount of time that will take to ship this. They say delivery Feb/March 2016. Why would anyone bank on this when around that time it will be close to NAB 2016 and odds are that something "amazing" will be announced then? They hyped the this new RAVEN camera quite a bit, so I expected a more expedited delivery.
Specs wise, it's good on paper, but I can't help but feel this is just a capped RED DRAGON and personally, if you are going to invest on the RED ecosystem, might as well go for their top of the line stuff, namely the RED WEAPON. Expensive? Yes, but I think for what you get is definetly worth the investment.
Newshooter has footage of it working. Still prototype stage.
