John,
Are any camera makers doing a lease program for their professional cameras. Something like lease for 2 years, upgrade to the latest or a better model, and repeat.
Seems like a great way to stay current with the changing technology and, from a vendor viewpoint, locking in the brand for their customer.
With all the wiring already run to the camera swapping out to the latest model should be a straightforward job.
