Sylo,

Alas, it is the same lens except for the mount, different bayonet mechanism. Note also that the reserve has not been met on the lens up for bid on ebay. It may very well go for 80% of...

sylo,

sylo,
Save your money. You would be disappointed with the quality of this lens for two reasons.

K,
IF you are careful you can get a good deal on a VX2000 or VX2100 using ebay. You can get a VX2000 for very near $1000. Make sure the seller has 25 plus or so sales and his rating is 100%. Get...

Pauleveritt,

Playback an older tape after the camera has been sitting for a few days. If it plays from the beginning with no problems then I would suspect the newer tapes. If you have problems...

I would stick to the 60 minute tape as it's substrate is a little thicker and more robust than the 80 minute tape substrate.

I sounds like you had a bit of debris on a head during the bad recording. I doubt you can salvage the footage.

Richard,
For video you want a fluid head with tilt and pan. A ball mount between the head and the legs will allow you to set the camera for a level pan. This allows the tripod legs to be a bit off...

That's the lens. The one shown is a screw on type which you may or may not like after a while. The bayonet base is a lot more handy but for $150 you can put up with a lot of unhandiness. Be sure...
