Regarding the prices for the cine version are real, why so much more than the standard combo version? You get a remote with a screen, a 1TB SSD and a ProRes option.
The Smart Remote is 650€ right now, so adding that to the package should not add more than 500€ IMHO, a 1TB should also not add more than 200-300€, left is the ProRes license. Maybe there is the catch. I have no idea what license costs are for ProRes, I could not find anything useful on the web. Atomos is selling the Ninja 5 for 500€, which can record ProRes but that is not a drone.
One reason is the cine comes with the next version of the Smart controller which uses O3 which I imagine is significantly more than the $750 USD list price for the original smart controller.
But yeah, the price is ridiculous. If I could "trade up" my A2S and smart controller at a reasonable price I might consider it, but I doubt they will offer such a program. |
