Has anyone used this camera yet. They call it the DSLR killer. They say it's better than the Red. Anyone agree or disagree...

It's a fantastic little camera...
I don't think you can call it a DSLR killer though because it costs 5-10 times as much.

I've only read and watched the reviews, but for 13 grand, it better kill DSLR's.
More realistic for me would be the fs100 which looks pretty good too.Tons of comparisons on Vimeo if you haven't seen them.
Paul, were you using Zeiss compact primes with it or something else?
I don't remember what lens it had on it, we played with it at NAB.
It's hard to justify the price in my mind. If I'm paying that much for a camera body, I can pay another $10k for a red body... at least in my head haha.
It's also only 1080p max resolution. I know that sounds funny, but you'd think for it's target audience and price tag it'd be at least 2k.
It makes a beautiful picture. I'd rather be shooting with it than my 7D, way better compression and less rolling shutter. Again if I was buying I'd spend the money different.
