A test done quickly with Kinemax
Certain shots are a little too red due to a filter and a bad white balance.

The compression format is also a little bastard.

The compression does not do justice to the image quality. The next move I'll try better compression.

Robert, I have asked your questions about the control level XLR from the camera and the bit rate, to the representative of Kinefinity Europe. I'm curious as well I tell you that when I have an answer.    

​The Sport Mode not dropping DR is great news.

I emailed Kinefinity with a few questions and here are the answers for those interested:
Q) Is there a way to adjust audio levels when using the XLR audio inputs? I do not remember seeing any specific audio level control on the camera at NAB. Can you adjust the audio levels on each of the channels independently and select which track the sound records to. For example, can you mix two audio sources in camera? A) Yes, there is a menu to turn up or down the gain of audio capturing, and so far tuning gain applies all channels at the same time Q) Was is the approximate dynamic range of the camera when using Sport Mode? Is there a significant drop in quality.  A) Sport Mode/HiSpeed mode: Dynamic range remains same, but it brings some moire and aliasing to the images Q) When is the new expected ship date to US customers? A) 2015 July for US customers Q) Will I be able to get the camera serviced (if necessary) a the US distributor when you have one, or would I need to buy the camera from them rather than directly from Kinefinity? A) Yes, your camera will get serviced if we have US distributor. Before that, we will take care of your camera directly Q) Is there an estimated timeline for in-camera ProRes implementation? Are you able to tell me if this will include ProRes 422HQ or 444XQ? A) In this year, for in-camera ProRes. Yes, it will include 422, 444, and 444XQ. It is a hardware update, not firmware. Q) I know that the current EF mount does not support image stabilization. Is there a plan to implement this function? A) IS for EF lens, we don’t have plan in near future. But it may be in the future. 

I just received my Kinemax 6K. I did some tests and I must say I am positively surprised by the camera.
I do not know what will be the future of this camera but with the new deal that included the 6k and High-speed, kineAudio, KineMag 120GB etc ... Under 10k without tax, I think it remains competitive for a tool very powerful.
The Golden 3k expected to arrive this summer with the HI-speed 4K / sport mode and the KineAudio.
For now I can already say it s nice to work with the camera, very stimulating. The results are, in my point of view, very impressive. The CineForm workflow is convenient for shooting in documentary style. Nice menu. I am surprised by the sensitivity of the sensor. By filming in shoulder, I didnt had any problems with the rolling shutter. It was not hard core shooting.
Sorry for my english, i m working with my body Google Translate, together we almost write in english

I want to take time to share some shots soon...
 

​That's not actually true anymore. Kinefinity have/are changing the spec on what's included with their basic packages. Their "Starter" package is now $8999 and includes the following:
6K Raw Option
4K Hi Speed Option
Free Assimilate Scratch rental for a year
Kinestation
Dual 3G-SDI Monitoring Outputs
KineAudio
Integrated Battery Plate
KineMAG-120GB SSD
Movcam Upper Handgrip
 
The Kinemax works out roughly $2000 more expensive than the URSA Mini 4.6 when you add EVF and 1TB of media.
