Camcorder or DSLR/ Mirrorless?

[HelsinkiZim]

I joined this forum lost 2 years ago and from where I was living (South Africa), the idea of a cheap (compared to camcorder standards) options for filmmaking was very attractive.

I bought the gh4 and set up a business. I hated it - not for image, but for how much I had to fiddle with adapters, grading etc to get the quality I wanted. 

Now I am considering the URSA Mini 4.6K (same price when considering adapters and time - and not the solution, but better) and I want a show of hands as to who would trade it all in for a full frame, 10 bit 422, 5 axis stab., camcorder for under 3 000 euros.

Is making this kind of camcorder possible?

Has it been done but I am blind?

Nope, nobody has done that and especially at that pricepoint that's not going to happen anytime soon, because that's like taking a A7SII, already expensive and throwing a bunch of stuff at it... releasing it in a very specialized market with small order quantities... for almost the same price at the A7SII itself.

Probably your best bet would be something like a DVX200.

Otherwise... FS5 with external recording/FS7? But at a price...
