No, Carl from ProAV in the UK (Kinefinity’s official supplier there) mentioned this in a comment on the Facebook group. See here.

I was wrong…apparently the manufacturing holdup was a part for the new Kineback-W. They’ve now been re-supplied and building Mavo’s and Terra’s!

I have a feeling they want to get that side lcd working before shipping production MAVO’s.

I hear that Mavo’s have started shipping! Can’t wait!

Since Kinefinity says the processing power on the MAVO is double that of the Terra, it could be that only the MAVO can do the computation required for ProResRaw at all frame rates.

Re-reading Kinefinity’s warning leads me to believe that maybe Metabones E mount adapters may not work with their E mount adapter.

Here’s their warning: “Notice: The third-party adapter may not work on SONY E mounting adapter to turn E mount to EF or PL mount; some modified E lenses also may not be used on the E mounting adapter of TERRA.”

Cool because I have Nikon and PL mount manual lenses and Metabones Speedbooster PL to E and Nikon to E so I figured I could just get my MAVO with the E to Kinemount adapter and I should be all good.

I’m just wary of their 3rd party adapter warning but I could see how that would only apply to ones with electronic contacts.

Sweet! I liked your TERRA 4k review Raffi!

Did you watch the NewsShooter NAB 2018 interview with Jihua at Kinefinity booth? In it he drops a hint that Chinese customers will get the MAVO first! 😯
