I love the 10in monitor in addition to the two 5 monitors. That just means for less add ons and cables and what not.

I did just find a little unit that plugs into the cFast card slots and lots you record to SSD which would make for a huge savings. Will have to grab one of those. Aside from that and having to upgrade my tripod system for about 1/2 of what the camera cost (for a low cost pro level tripod and head)...It's perfect for what I want and that's to shoot short narrative films with a small crew in a controlled environment.

I've already got a few people lined up to rent it too, so it will all pay for itself eventually.
