If I skinny fuck like myself can do it, you can too. It'll be a while before I give up the UMPs. They came as a result of the loyalty upgrade the gave original Ursa owners. We paid $6000 for two of them at launch, which I think was less than or equal to the cost of one, at retail. I don't have the need for 300fps, so the new model didn't really appeal to me.
I think the Micro Cinema Camera line will be upgraded next. Removing the monitor should help with overheating issues. And a modular system like RED, Kinifinity and now zCam use. Most of the complaints people seem to have involve their choice of batteries for power. We use NP970s in an adapter and can get 6 hours off one battery, instead of 20 minutes off of the battery that comes with it.
