Wow, I would love to, but my freelance video gig hasn't been successful enough for me to swing ~$1000 on the housing. I know it would be a huge boon to my setup, but unfortunately my experimentation with the 5N has been driven by the price/performance ratio.

You did mention in the preliminary guide that you're looking into an external audio input for the accessory port, which I would also be greatly interested in. I think your work holds a lot of promise so I'll be following Compact Cine Systems closely. Wish I could be a venture capitalist and fund the projects, but as a cash-poor but ambition-rich filmmaker, I'll have to be a well-wisher that can support when I can.

All the best.

Well, I, didn't necessarily mean that I was waiting for the price to fall as much as I was waiting to see if the price without the camera/monitor would end up as? I'm in the states, so I would use the option to avoid the import taxes. (And I already have the camera, anyway.)

Just found this topic while researching ways to enhance my 5N for my frankenrig, and I think this is awesome. I'm going to follow this closely and if the price falls into my range, I'm definitely interested. Great work, Rich!
