I can only comment on 1.
Yes, it does 24p now.
The quality is unbelievable. And you’ll have a job getting such great bokeh / shallow DoF on even top cameras.
But it’s hard to use, especially if you have panning shots, or really, any kind of work involving a moving camera or subject matter moving toward/away from the camera. Unless you can afford to ‘pimp it up’ as they say, with loads of custom-made gear that is.
So it might be an idea to describe the kind of things you’ll be filming before a recommended choice can be made.
