Since I have the 8040s I am sorely tempted. I already have Schoeps, Neumann and Beyer ribbon m/s rigs
so I don't really need it just want it.

EmRR:
So glad they finally produced this mic for the 8000 series. 

I am partial to the switch options on the older larger MKH series since I do a lot of close work, and frequently use the pad and the frequency tailoring options, but this smaller version w/o is perfect for distant work with lower visual impact and weight.  I suppose the MKH30 will now be discontinued like the 20/40.   They are some of my favorite and most used mics, in many settings. 

MKH for the win in high humidity and big temperature swings.  Very very low noise floor and high output too.

Sennheiser finally came out with the 8030?  It’s about bloody time.  I’ve been looking for this mic since maybe 2010?  Every year I’d do a search for “MKH 8030” just in case Sennheiser snuck it out when I wasn’t looking.  Gave up searching a few years ago, now here it is.  Back in 2011 I promised I’d buy one when it came out so I guess I’m gonna have to pony up.
