Agreed.
I placed a pre-order with them and cancelled it. Their communication was excellent and they refunded my deposit without a murmur. It made me feel quite guilty about cancelling actually!

Re: My mini-doc went viral!

Re: SD cards for C100 in UK?
Thanks Mark
I couldn't agree more. I always used 16 GB cards on my 5D for that reason. Also because the batteries lasted about the same time.

Not 64 GB or smaller as I read it.
BTW For anyone reading this...

Re: One song, One take, One camera.
Covering a single track in one shot is an interesting challenge.
You seem to have cut in a bit of B roll and use some effects to cover up any unwanted transitions which works OK.
