What are the aimed price of thease new XDs? And do they record to there media device(blu-ray or SxS card) at a full 4:2:2 rate? Or is that just the computer linked resolution?

Looks like it records to XDCAM optical media. As far as pricing goes, I’ve heard some folks speculate that street price will fall somewhere in the mid to high $30’s
