I don\'t think video is going to overtake stills in sports until the focusing issues are resolved. Thin DOF field with long lenses is where current dslr\'s shine and those shots are not going to be possible with video for a long while.
Sorry, that\'s nonsense. There are plenty of focus aids already available for video acquisition and the new technologies that are coming onto the market will make it even easier to track focus at any aperture at any focal length.
Can you link a video to some long lens wide aperture (f2.8) video action? I doubt it.
