The New Canon Cinema EOS c300

Anyone else reading the liveblog of Canon's Hollywood event announcing their new Cinema camera? Looks pretty cool though no specs yet. The RED Scarlett announcement should be coming up any minute now, too. Big night for indie filmmaking!

ETA: Just noticed that the RED announcement will be a 6PM PST.

Used the C300 for a small project last week.
We had to rush (4 locations in 8 hours), so I don't think we got the maximum result from the camera yet, but the footage looks great: sharp, haven't seen any artifacts (yet ), rolling shutter seems very acceptable and editing and grading went smooth (Premiere Pro CS5.5).
And no need to stick with shallow depth of field: a deeper DOF is also easy to achieve.
