CF Card reader.

[Craig Bowman]

Is the CF card reader part of the basic camera body and all I need to do is order a swack of CF cards or do I need to order the reader accessory as well?
Its hard to tell because in the photo of the camera body on the Red.com store it appears to show the reader as part of the basic body but the Reader shows up as a $500 accessory. Which is it?

the cf module is an additional 500 bucks. Jim said in a post somewhere that you should really have one, but with all that he was offering for just 17.5k he couldn't afford giving away any more at that price point. IMHO it's totally worth the extra 500 clams.
