[Konvas] film out ... dslr . Nobody cares about this??? Strange!

Can't wait to see your tests, Olivier.
 
Steve, isn't 16mm already dead? No need to wait for Scarlet. Very nice gear is being dumped for a pittance these days. Even though I believe that 16mm is still a very viable capture medium, even from a budget standpoint. Colcam's points are still true. I hear so much about the digital post costs that people seem to forget about... until they have to pay for them. I'm sure its maturing, but moving and processing all that data is still not free. 
 
There is so much excitement about digital capture and the idea that once you turn the camera on you're shooting for "free". I don't think that's going to change. It is an ingrained mindset with most film students these days, and many "film" programs don't have any film in them. The Advanced Cinematography instructor at the Cinema program at LACC told me a year ago they were done with film and would only teach digital (and this in a town with more film use than anywhere else i can think of). That was a response to lack of interest in actual film from the students.
