Why not apply the same rating system here to keep things consistent?

(!?) And... Unless you are a fairly high level video professional you are not going to be shooting 8K for, say, at least 6 years. And in terms of data density, 2TB on a SDXC card, sorta hard to imagine. Not to mention write speeds. So, all things considered , 2TB limit isn't restrictive for anyone right now. In 6 years, it might be restrictive for maybe 0.5% of people. Last I checked the Red One, Red Scarlet, and Red Epic don’t record to SDXC. (!?)

However "most" of the time, we can up the ISO a stop to make up for it, at least as far a shutter speed. Nothing can change the DOF difference. Since most of my photography is done on trips, I would love to see a 70-200 F4 VR III Nano! I don’t deny there is still an advantage of having F2.8 available at times.

Maybe keep it to three stars *** for highly credible, two stars ** for moderately credible and one star * for the least credible of rumors. That ought to do the trick and then we can all rag you when a three star rating turns out to be dead wrong and a one star rating turns out to be 100% correct. :-) Regards, Robin Edgar Peter I agree that this site is about Nikon *rumors* some of which will be proved to be unsubstantiated.
