We are talking about a 2-year marketing pre-launch. Back when the Scarlet was announced a 2/3" sensor was considered big, then these dSLRs started coming out with full-frame 35mm sensors that are even bigger then the $20K+ Red One.

Which is why they red-did their entire line-up to $10k+ setups that include S35 sensors. Either way this sub-$3k 5DMkII obviously has been used in House, SNL, and its been reported that even Harry Potter and Iron Man 2 are using these "cheap" 5D MarkII.

http://www.cnet.com.au/rumour-5d-mark-ii-used-in-upcoming-harry-potter-and-iron-man-movies-339296446.htm

With the Panasonic's AFG100 coming in at ~$6k with a micro-43rd sensor (which is close to a super 35mm), the Scarlet missed their release sweet-spot.

Go to RedUser board, you see how sensitive Jannard is to people mentioning these new rivals, and complaining about how people mentioning that the Scarlet will take 3-years between the time they announced it and the time they will actually release it.]]>Apr 13th 2010 1:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/

I can't imagine how much Canon is paying people to use their camera and tell people about it.
I guess the plus for people is that they are getting good prosumer quality in a camera setup that may only cost them about $3k, instead of having to spend $6-9k.

I just hope that House filmed this with the firmware update that allowed 24p instead of 30 because that always drives me nuts (unless the scene calls for it). To me, it's almost as bad as turning on the "overdrive/smoothing" feature in an HDTV, which makes me want to barf.]]>Apr 13th 2010 12:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/

so this is a test of sorts to see if a camera on a basic tripod can look as good. and remember this is a camera that was designed for still photography first and video second.
We'll see in a few weeks what the results are. ]]>Apr 13th 2010 8:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/Apr 13th 2010 8:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/Apr 13th 2010 8:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/Apr 13th 2010 8:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/Apr 13th 2010 8:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/Apr 13th 2010 10:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/Apr 13th 2010 10:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/You can bounce a quarter off that buttocks.]]>Apr 13th 2010 11:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/13/canon-5d-mark-ii-used-to-shoot-entire-house-season-finale-direc/
