If thinking something that costs too much is entitlement, well... I got nothin'.
Another thing I just realized during Cine Gear is the placement of the focus gear ring. See how far up it is. I'm sure everyone is different but on my rig, that would be completely worthless. I have to position my gear ring all the way on the back of the focus grip. The reason is for the FF to clear the MB. I'm using the TrusMT FF and Cinematics Matte Box so it's not like I'm using any crazy combo here. To get the lens far enough in the MB so it clears the edges for FOV, I don't see how you could use this lens. You would have to have one of the large, wide angle MB, like the Red Rock or it's knock off sold on here. I wonder why they placed it so far forward? I should have asked them when I was playing with the lens.
They've now got the 100mm as a cine lens:
