None of us know the in's and outs of the negotiations between Apple and Kinefinity. The facts we know are: Kinefinity has been reported to have been negotiating with Apple for two years, Kinefinity put out a press statement that they have official backing from Apple for Prores, Apple haven't updated their website. Apple haven't started any court action against Kinefinity in the 7 months the announcement has been made, or ever, nor made any official statement debunking the press release.
This isn't the pattern of a copyright infringer, for starters, the bogus implementation of Prores has been in the wild for many years, they could have slotted it into their cameras in a very short amount of time, the fact they have taken this long seems to infer that they are following Apple's process. Secondly, Apple have had 7 months to put a stop to this, and yet have chosen not to. This is not the pattern Apple follows with it's legal action, they make public statements very quickly after media coverage, and always aggressively protect their IP.
Occams Razor suggests that Kinefinity are in the process of getting official approval, have not yet got it but have reached the stage where they feel confident in putting it in their marketing material. Apple not disagreeing with their press release suggests that at a minimum, there is a bridge in place that Apple do not wish to burn. (Actually, if this were any company but Apple, OR would suggest that the update to the webpage is sat in some developers TODO list, but I daren't invite the Macocalypse on myself by suggesting that there is nothing special about the company)
Either way, thank-you for keeping nationality out of it after I asked.

People are getting huffy about Kinefinity not being on the approved ProRes license list and are using that fact as a club to knock anyone who praises the company and their cameras. I think.

If I had the capital, I'd plunk down for one of these today. Looks like an amazing package, and the image off the 6K Kinefinity sensor is just beautiful.

As you have Nikon lenses I'd recommend the NX1

If you'd have Canon lenses you'd be stuck... as then you couldn't use the NX1 And Panasonic would make more sense then.

"The big news today is that their European dealer HD Videoshop has told us that Kinefinity have officially been given permission by Apple to add ProRes to their camera"

What guys?
BTW, I want to see some finished kickstarter projects up and running like the FPS1000 and the SteadyFX

Sony will add Slog to the AX100, X70, AX53 and the Z150 after realizing people want videocameras under 5000€ with better picture profile options instead of relying only on compact and mirrorless cameras. </sarcasm>

Two new Blackmagic cameras that will feature amazing specs and "will ship in August."
I'm already mentally prepared to preorder and then wait for a year for it to actually ship based on previous experiences. 

Nikon will be removing the tiny 4K time limit on the D5 in a future firmware update I read on NR.
 
As for the issues with the D5/D500,  have we forgotten already how *bad* the first ever HDSLR was from Nikon? But then fairly quickly they got ok, and then eventually surpassed Canon.
I reckon the same will be true with 4K, this is just their first 4K camera. Give them a little more time and we'll see a Nikon D5700 come out eventually which does wonderful 4K for cheap!

Well yes, you seem to be making the extraordinary claim that Kinefinity are trying to pass their products off as Reds with that link there, so do eloborate to your hearts content.

Take a trip down to your local shops, you'll find ripoffs from every country in the world. Including yours. Lego ripped off Kiddicraft, Oreos ripped off Hydrox (and then launched an ad campaign claiming they were the ripoffs), Sketchers ripped off Toms, Disney Pixar ripped off Pierrot Le Poisson Clown, Angry Birds ripped off Crush the Castle, Farmville ripped off Farm Town, Pong Ripped off Table Tennis (the 1972 computer game), Guitar Hero ripped off Guitar Freaks, A fist full of Dollars - Yojimbo, Lincoln Continental - Bently Continental, Chrysler 300 - Bently Continental, Focus/Mondeo - Astin Martin, Astin Martin - Everything Fisker does, Marvel Wasp - DC Bumblebee, Psych - The Mentalist, Benson - Squidward, Secret of the Incas - Raiders of the Lost Ark, Monsters Inc - Little Monsters, Facebook - Friendster, Twitter - TechRadium, Paypal - Billpoint, Burberry - Vivienne Westwood.
Need I go on, or shall we keep nationality out of it?

For the curious, here is the thread (I've commented a few times in that thread already, I'm "David Peterson"):

Yes... some great stuff there to see though. 
There's a thread on RedUser about the Terra - bloody hell some of those guys probably wear pyjamas with the Red logo on them. Lots of negativity towards Kinefinity. Insane.

I don't understand how a 4k option would at all, impact those who don't use the video function. I also don't understand why 1000 people feel the need to vote "I don't care" if they truly don't care. It is annoyingly passive-aggressive.

That  would be the KiniMINI which has dropped in price to US$2K

Mercer, google "CHDK". I can write programs to run on my p&s

Problem for me is ignoring the price difference with the c300ii and the added features compared to a c100ii.

From the decent footage I've seen from the Kinefinity cameras, I think it has one of the best images on the market. 
These new Terra cameras almost sound perfect, so what's the catch? (yes, they come from China and only have HD Videoshop in Berlin for distribution in Europe). 
The features look great, but i'm mostly impressed with the weight/size. 
I'll be keeping an eye on this one. 

Maybe someone will make a control unit for it that attaches to the COM port!

This was shot all on Kinemini 4k (except the drone shots).
 
Some pretty weighty grading especially where we had to coax magic hour out of scenes shot at high noon. I would say I pushed the camera pretty well but still had more latitude to give.
Lowlight is an area where the camera suffers- shadows can be quite noisy. I am currently upgrading to the KineMOUNT which will allow me to attach a speedbooser (Kinehancer), getting the crop factor down to about 1.15x and adding another stop of light.
I am considering grabbing a KineMAX as well, but feel as though while it is a great value camera, my money would be better invested in glass right now. But I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade to a cinema-style camera.

My Kinefinity is currently in China receiving a mount upgrade.
This system has a lot of potential. They're like the inverse of Black Magic. No buzz/hype about them, but they actually deliver.
