on my YouTube channel, I did a rough statistical analysis on the upvotes, 80% from go pro 12, 15% from magic lantern cams, 5% from f3 and red m-x cams. when I use go pro 12, my style is very different, as I know the camera movements will not reduce the image quality. in almost every shot, I do panning, tilting, walking, etc. also the camera is so small, I can go closer as people accept this as a toy cam. many times I attend events that I will not bring bigger cameras at all, I bring go pro 12 in my pocket, and can get some shots. the end results actually are very compelling. magic lantern cameras are very good for color. f3 is also very good for color, just ergonomically not easy to handle. red m-x cameras may have film like rendering so that please people's eyes. in general, I think a small action camera with m43/43 sensor, so that the low light is borderline usable, with gh7's ibis and af, with a pancake lens at f2.8, I doubt people will have other cameras. at least this camera will be used much more frequently than other cameras.

Love the EF 40mm f2.8 pancake. It lives on my R5C for basic run n gun and gimbal stuff.

RED made these grand promises of making "Obsolescence Obsolete" but the hard reality is often the upgrades were not truly worth it, the cost savings of paying for a very expensive sensor upgrade vs what you'd get from selling your perfectly fine working camera then re-buying the new one with the latest sensor. You still can swap out the EF Mount for PL Mount on an EVA1 if you wish, you the user could do it yourself. Yes, but with a few tweaks, such as having an operator side menus such as the F5/F55 cameras, not on the AC side like the the ARRI 35 (or even worse, none at all like the Mini!!).
