You're right Chuck. The cost simply isn't worth the benefit right now. I've got a solid tripod, but I don't have a smooth video head for it. And I'd insist on a battery grip--and then I'd have to upgrade my computer because it will barely render HD video let alone edit it. And I really don't want to have to worry about taking video and pictures at the same time while doing a wedding.


If I start shooting a little more regularly (and making more money), I'll certainly consider it. It does have some feature I'd love to have, but those features simply aren't have-to-haves at this time.
