Ha...excellent

As for reviews, here is a good one, still video centric. Primarily about video, until 19:50, where he just calls them excellent cameras for stills and then launches in who he thinks these cameras are for, and really, it is many, many people..

After all this, is anyone surprised Canon punched out an amazing stills camera(s) that are photos first and video second? After all, Canon still has their cinema lineup that are video first.

All the issues I read about are video based. Really, these are perfect for how a shoot. 99% stills with the occasional video, but my videos are 1080, so, none of this affects how I shoot.

Looking at this lens at retail sites and youtube I have never seen it mounted on a tripod and it apparently does not come with a collar or foot. Do you know how it mounts on a ballhead or gimbal?

That's a good observation --- it looks like a gimbal is not possible with this lens. But I suppose you could use a rail and clamp setup to make it work from a camera bracket..? Something like this: https://www.reallyrightstuff.com/192...-192-FAS-Clamp
