I was thinking that too when i first started on the whole FPS thing - but reading, reading, reading many threads it seems one can adjust to framing/focusing fairly readily.i think you should have a hard look at the IQ250 if WYSIWYG is important
As well there is the whole SP2 thing going on which is a brilliant idea - i know that earlier backs are FW800 but if this works

then we may be able to adapt a FW back to USB3 and use the SP2 for framing/focus ?
I'm all for an IQ250 5 years from now when they are 10K. I have no issue with spending on the camera and lenses - they will be going strong when the IQ 850 is released - but the backs are way over priced in my opinion. This is no longer 2001 - the tech is mature now so these guys are just milking the market. But the camera and lenses - no problem - it costs what it costs. Quality never was cheap. Electronics age and become worthless. I'm in a high tech industry and the new models just never stop coming. Still, sales make the world go around and these back makers have their costs and expenses to deal with too, so ...who can say? All i can say is i am not ready to lose 20K on a back in the next 2 years. I see the Alpa and lenses as a very very long term investment that i can pass on to my kids and them their kids. Cant say that about a back no matter which side of the fence one may be on, on this subject.
