Re: P2 cards are 100% "Media". The pure definition of Media supports that

[tony salgado] "in the world of non ENG production no producer could easily be convinced to pay a daily rental rate for a P2 card on an ongoing basis.

Wouldn't the producer simply pay for the rental rate of the camera package?
Why wouldn't the rental rate for the P2 card be bundled into the camera package price? That's how I would assume it would work.

When I rent out myself, with my gear included, I don't charge a producer for the mattebox I use (for example). It's simply part of my kit, and I charge a daily rate which covers my entire camera package.

Producers are the most difficult persons to convince to accept a new technology that cost more than existing means.

I don't think shooting on P2 would cost a producer extra. It would be a large initial investment for the cameraperson who bought the P2 cards. In fact, on an HD shoot it could wind up being cheaper for a producer, who would only wind up paying for an external hard drive on which to carry home all his footage (and at a certain point Hard drives become cheaper than HD tape).
