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,
The big question is what is the diameter of the threads that are on the lens proper. I can't find out anything in the posted details other than there are adapters that allow for mounting on...
sylo,
Save your money. You would be disappointed with the quality of this lens for two reasons.
1. Even though it would mount on your VX2K camera I believe there would be some serious...
Heavy,
What other audio devices are you using? Mics, preamp, mixer, cables, wireless mics, etc? Since you are getting the same problem on both cameras it may very well be caused by an source...
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...
When you capture video from your camera to your NLE the picture that is displayed while you are editing is usually of a lower quality as the editing would be slowed down quite a bit if the full...
Go for the Beachtek. This is the passive model. I would use it for house feeds as you don't need to worry about signal strength. No amping necessary plus it is a lot less expensive than the amped...
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 was having trouble with the 31:XX error code over last weekend. My battery indicator showed about 250 minutes at the beginning of about a one half hour shoot and got down into the 190s by the end...
If you are uncomfortable with the amount of packing material they sent then get some more of the bubble wrap and add to what you have. The camera will be OK. Look at the way it was shipped when new...
You don't need to worry about the hiss problem if you are recording scenes outdoors or with with a lot of background noise. Any hiss won't be noticeable unless it's pretty quiet. Set your audio...
Yes, if you had a digital deck you would have recorded on it just fine. The tape is the end of the line for the video information in the camera and the recording head is the last part of the camera...
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...
A 58mm UV filter should be mounted most times to protect the camera lens from the rigors of the environment. Use a good quality filter like Hoya or Tiffen (there are others). Cost should be around...
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...
