PMW-200 SXS cover silver..... really?
 

Not that this has any effect on me buying a PMW-200 ( I'm gonna for sure) but does it ship with the "ugly" silver cover where the SxS cards go?

Sorry if this has been asked a million times but I had to ask.... every demo or unboxing video I see has the silver cover... I saw one video where the guy said that the production models will ship with a black cover.

just curious..... thanks

Ehm...Is that really a issue?

Yep, PMW-200 is Silver, PMW-150 is black. Same with F5/F55, F5 lens mount is black, F55 is silver. Guess in Sony's mind Silver denotes better than Black.

Hey it could be worse, what if it was gold?

Re: PMW-200 SXS cover silver..... really?
 

Gold is reserved for the S35mm sensor CineAlta cameras. :-)

But the F65 should have a ring of diamonds around the lens mount.

You guys are killing me. I just 'launched' coffee through my nose! I love 'video-centric' humor. : )

Ok, thanks for your replies.... and like I said... it's not an issue.... just curious.

Just be greatful it's not "cinnabar"...

The dept responsible for designing the SxS door probably didn't get the memo to make the door black. It does look odd.
