Backordered for 2 - 4 weeks. I like mine, but have issues with the not-so-manual iris...

Is it something like the TRV950's iris?

It's a Sony. I was wondering what you meant "with the not-so-manual iris."

Its hard to explain, but Paul mentioned the same thing on another thread. That's what I'm going through.

As I think Steve also posted, I found so far that locking the shutter speed to 1/30th and living with the auto iris give the best picture and motion blur, also try using ND filters to control the white blow outs, seemed to work fine in the small tests I did.
