    Power or record button are not exactly a features, but Your point is well taken.
    I believe we are all here mature adults (most of us anyway) and we know we are talking about "main" features, nevertheless I am going to "edit" the main post accordingly. Thanks for pointing it out...

    This is my opinion:

    - 2k
    - very large LCD
    - PL mount
    - 2 XLR connections
    - Red Raw
    - Coffee Machine RED© included
    - Color kaleidoscope with fake snow flakes

    1. Built-in Nikon Mount
    2. Autofocus with Nikon lenses -- push button high-speed focus
    3. Manual zoom with Nikon lenses
    4. CF card
    5. 1080p
    Icing: Wireless focus pull (ie Arri). Think about it: the high speed motors in the Nikons (and Sigma, etc) focus faster (and more accurately) than the most nimble-fingered puller. Why have mechanical focus when some of the best lenses in the world already offer god's gift to focusing?

    If Scarlet were simply a Nikon D40 with a 1080p cmos and variable frame rates it would absolutely kill. DOF? All APS-C (1.5x/1.6x crop) sensors have excellent DOF -- just crank the frame rates and it pulls vid with Nikon pro-level quality.

    Really, Sony and Canon should also come out with cams like this. $4999 sans glass and it'd murder everything else on the market. Hell, $9999 for a variable frame rate Nikon? Sign me up.

    1.fixed lens
    2.shoots to SDHC
    3.Raw
    4.attached LCD or OLED screen
    5.variable frame rates

    Price: Less than $3000 (let's face it, anything pocket sized is going to be hell to stabilize so they're probably trying to take on a different corner of the market)

    A) Please be specific about the price-tag (read the main post)

    B) Regarding stabilization, I know heavier normally is better, but there are some instances where smaller is easier to stabilize. We have, on our last heli-shoot, tried to see how would HV20 behave stabilized by two Kenyon Gyros and a Glidecam customized system. The footage was very impressive (of course not counting HDV format). We have tried similar setup to shoot out of moving vehicles with the same impressive results. This is where "pocket sized" Scarlet will deliver miracles...

    Okay, after reading every body else's thoughts, I'll mix it up. Here goes:

    1. 2K
    2. CF Recording
    3. DSLR body (either Nikon D300-size or maybe even thin film body frame with a large LCD built in to the back with an interchangeable mount, starting with PL)
    4. Variable Frame Rates 1-60
    5. 2x XLR with HDMI out as only outputs
    Price: $1,800


    ...(yeah, I said $1,800)
