Xax, 
That sounds pretty awesome.  Especially that you are getting a set of
PL'ed Lomos?  Wow!  That IS a deal.  Because of the look I'm getting,
I'm insuring my Lomo primes (8) for 10k.  I'd hate to try to replace
them.  I can't imagine why someone is parting with that kit.  

Yes, I'm not renting my Red without me.  Having that ET handheld and VF
mount REALLY separate the men from the boys in function and feel. I hate
it, but some people look for that.  I do rent mine when I am the AC or
DIT.  I'm doing a better job paying it off working with other shooters.
They love those two ET items.  Oh yeah and also the ET Arri style
dovetail.

I'm getting nowhere on getting a better EVF cable.  Red hasn't released
the specs on it.  Couple of dead ends for me so far.  Specs are out on
the power cables, just not on the LCD and EVF cable.  That right angle
is gonna hurt you too with lomo primes.  I'd imagine Zeiss primes would
also give us the same wrong placement.  Handheld, it gets too busy with
Ffocus and EVF on the left.  Maybe I can talk Red into making us some
better cables.

Simultaneous charger is a must.  Since you'll have the Red charger, you
could just add a 2x simultaneous IDX charger to it instead of a 4x.

Ahh...you guys in Europe have ALL the good light. Especially in the
summer.  But thanks for the well wishes.

All the best (and congrats), 
lael
