Ergonomically, a Video enabled DSLR doesn't even make a good DSLR, much less
decent production video camera.

It does make a great picture at a cost point that looks dramatic compared to
most HD production rigs up to now.

Once you cobble it together into a usable tool and with some imagination,
and a talented crew, you can make  great film.

Because of the ergonomics, where we want it to shine, documentary and small
crew production, the DSLR is unwieldy.

I would say I speak from a lifetime of experience, but I haven't died yet,
so only a part of a lifetime. ;-)
