Cinema Differentiator

Perhaps the 35mm equivalent digital Indie film revolution will parallel the 16mm film Indie movement from back in the day. While companies like Canon and Sony and Red are positioning their 35mm equivalent sensors just out of reach of the digital guerrillas that championed DSLR cinema (like myself), companies like Black Magic will fill that void with 16mm equivalent sensor cameras at prices (sub $3K) and resolutions (2.5K) that make more sense. I adore the Canon 5D2 full frame look but maybe it's time to search for another cinema differentiator.
