depends on the quality. if it was decent it would be a fucking cool feature. i would probably never use it.

Oh man, a full frame Nikon shooting 24p video? I would get some sound equipment and fucking MAKE MOVIES. I would not eat or sleep until it was mine. Do want handheld Red One!

Which is good, but it's unfortunate IMO that there's this "we can do video/slideshows/etc, so we must do them" thing in the media, when text and stills tell a story just as well as they always did.

They're coming out with one, called the Red Scarlet. $3,000, 2/3" sensor, fixed 8x T2.8 zoom lens, exactly what focal lengths I don't know.

That's what I'm afraid of with this camera. I'm mostly pessimistic when it comes to new gear. I chose to get the D80 just yesterday rather than wait for the D90. I already expect the D90 to have no focus motor especially since AF primes are out of stock practically everywhere now with no sign of restocking. If the massive delay between the release of the D300/D3 and D90 was because of them engineering the video to be a seamless addition just like in point and shoots, it better have great quality. They did nudge at 1080p.

Oh and I bet that the video will be effectively crippled by going into auto just like in P&S's. ie, no manual aperture control or ISO control. Only settings to be changed are white balance presets and size/framerate presets. And dare I say no video in Ai or Ai-s lenses because of lack of metering (I want to use my 50mm f/1.2!!). So there could also be no video in non-AFS lenses because of the constant refocusing it won't be able to do. Marketing fucking gimmick that will fail and no one will use regularly and make the camera more expensive than it needs to be. Fuck you, Nikon.
