View Full Version : My dream camera- an FS200 (made up)

My real dream camera would be the FS700, but that's way beyond my meager budget. So, based upon reading comparisons between the FS100 and AF100, I came up with the perfect replacement for the FS100:

Put the innards of the FS100 - the sensor, processors, etc. - into the FS700 body.
You get:

ND filters.
HD/SDI out.
Better side handle, with a power zoom lens down the road.
Stronger top handle.

Now you have the FS200.

It wouldn't have the 4K sensor and over-cranking slo-mo of the 700, but I can live without that. The big plus is, it should be a lot cheaper than the 700. I see it as a natural progression of the FS100.
I'm happy with the 100, but I do wish it had ND filters and an HD/SDI out (like the AF100).

Thoughts?

Glenn - when you have some ready, please send me one. I hope I can trade my original FS100 in :)

PS. Please don't forget about one more thing: replace Cinematone with Cinegamma curves...

Instead of ND filters I would like to have the gamma curves and HDSDI - everything else is not such a big deal for me, till 4k raw comes up.

So that would be a FS250?
