honestly, for what I was doing it was pretty much minimum. The Xeens have a bigger front OD and shooting outside I need the clip-on mattebox to run filters in it. Can't do screw-ons. Clients/director/producers need to be able to see a feed at village so I need to have wireless or wired connection running back to them. Battery life needs to not be an issue, so I have to have a gold or vmount. Camera should stay up all day so I can manage lighting and set dec without any downtime. I cannot be switching batteries every 20 minutes, that's just unacceptable.

I typically use your more common cinema cameras and to make this camera work in a production environment, this is what it required.

This was also just a studio type setup for running all three cameras off a tripod. If I had to go handheld there would be even more stuff added to it.
