Picked up my new FS7. Very different beast to the EX1!

Ive unscrewed one of the cable supports on the remote arm so I can get it on a tripod without having to take the thing off.

As a fairly tall guy I cant see myself shoulder mounting the FS7. I will be pushing it into my chest like I do with other camera's. The remote arm will still be a great help though.

18105G lens and metabones adapter for my 1835 here tomorrow. Looking forward to getting to know this cam well!

It is too bad that the new power zoom (Sony FE PZ 28-135mm f/4 G OSS Lens) has that darn crop factor. Not wide enough for general ENG or EFP especially in tight spaces, it seems like a good idea to stick with 1/2' for such purposes.
