What you wrote above is the truest statement in the thread. A lot of videographers and wannabes almost seem to fetishize the equipment. I don't use the very latest camera technology but spend a lot of time on lighting and optimizing the settings instead of upgrading the camera and get great video as a result. I'm still using tapes, but at some point next year I may go tapeless, perhaps with the Sony Ex-1 series since I like Sony video cameras. For my workflow in the meantime, tapes are still very easy for me to deal with.
