Nick, your clips along with the French and Japanese reviews are convincing me to buy this camera.

1/3" vs 1/2" inch is the only (largely psychological I think) stumbling block vis-a-vis the EX1r....

The Tamron has a yellow colour cast that I personally don't like - the Nikkors are neutral in comparison. I should add I have the newer version with IS - it may actually be inferior to the earlier...

The reason I'm selling my Tamron is the colour rendition. Maybe I just have a bad copy, but I have to CC everything from the Tamron - my Nikkors are nice and neutral.

However, I don't...

Sold my 5DII for a 7D due to 25p.

Will switch back as soon as the 5DII gets 25p - I much prefer my prime lenses on a FF body.

I think Perrone's spot on.

I have a 5d2 and 7d - they're great for portability, low light, dof control, stills... but I use my Z5 for day to day work.

Hi Conrad,

As a former XL2/XLH1 owner and current 5Dm2/7D owner... I would say... it depends. For the film/indie side of things, it's a no-brainer: switch.
