Aesthetics - Could look a little more like the S5

I got to tell you I LOVE the S5's designs - I only wished that the S1 could've had the similar structural designs as well as the cool blue and red lights of the S5.
In addition, my wife told me that there are 3 different fonts used on the s1. I looked and the button fonts as well as the fonts for the vivaldi II plate and La Spaziale look pretty scatterbrained.
These are very small gripes and wishes - I love my machine. :D

Your wife is correct about the fonts.
I cover the big S1 logo with a timer, I'm not too crazy about the "Comic Sans" font on the control panel but that "Vivaldi II" logo can stay.

LOL - I gave my wife some heat that she actually knew what the font on the button is.

It's an occupational hazard
I assume your wife works in the graphics field as well...

LOL - she's a finance geek trapped who should've gone the creative arts route.

I've been wanting to do that!
Don't know if there's much interest in that, I'd need another cameraman to shoot for me while I do my "thang"...holding a 5lb camera while pouring milk just isn't right for the angles I like.

5 lbs??? Is your camcorder that heavy?

It's kinda' heavy...not sure how much but it's not a standard homeboy camera. It's a 3 CCD variety that weighs significantly more than the little peewee versions.
