While this one has been discussed, I'll just add a personal note of why I spent the extra $2K for the EX-3
1) Interchangeable lenses. I may not be as personally concerned over lenses but, as with my HVX, I will be renting the camera when I'm not using it. I think the interchangeable lenses will make it far more attractive as a rental. 2) Ergonomics-- I prefer the ergonomics of the EX-3 having shot with an EX1 for the past several months. This include: A) Position of Controls (this is a real big one for me) B) Shoulder rest C) Better feel of balance (at least for me) So, to me it is worth the $2K. Your mileage may vary. Ned Soltz |

I'm with ya Brian, that was one of the first things I noticed/thought when I was playing with one at NAB. Not a deal breaker for me but definitely a negative. That said, I didn't think it was worth the 13k they originally announced at but at 9k I it's worth the extra.
