The basic camera will not come with a lens, mic, or tripod plate. Lens will be $15,000 and up. Batts and chargers, $5,000, onboard monitor $4000 and up, mattebox $2500 and up, Tripod and head, from $5000 and up. There are then dozens of other things that you need to buy to make a decent shooting package. Don’t buy a minimal package and then insist that your DP work with what you have – it just sucks to work with a kick ass camera and none of the right accessories.
Thats Just my 2 cents, people may argue about the price of things, but for the most part I lowballed the prices above, and am speaking in generalities not trying to start a debate.

Thanks Gary. I suspect you may be right.He was trying to batch capture. Although, after talking to the editor today (by the way he has done tons of work in fcp with varicam) it seems to have been a mysterious problem that seemed to go away after shutting down and rebooting. At any rate, probably not a problem with the camera.
Thanks again,

I was shooting at various frame rates but I did not do any ramps or speed changes during a take.
