Music video I just completed for 2.L.O.C.O In Crime. Shot on the HV20 with an SG Pro(r1) 35mm adapter, and a 4x close up filter between the two to enable me to zoom in far enough. A polarizing filter was used also. All locations were around the west of Sydney (Blacktown etc). Edited in Vegas 7 using the standard colour corrector.

A bunch of frame grabs from the clip can be found on my flickr page here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/avene/s...7603945057130/

There were a few issues with the SG Pro, such as dust, forgetting too turn it on for one shot, etc.

Great work. Love seeing great results from the HV20. Assuming Cinemode was used? Recorded to tape?

The shots under the shade when he is sitting front of a shed werent as punchy as the rest of the clip wondering if that was just the cam or you chose to leave it a bit flater?

How much did you managed to get the sgpro for. I am looking at getting one but not sure about how much extra I'll end up paying with taxes etc..?

Hi Peter, thanks for having a look. Actually, I think the colour correction on that shot was slightly different. I hadn't really noticed too much difference. And yes, all cinemode and recorded to tape.

I bought the SG Pro in 2006. It worked out around $1200 all up. Can't remember what the UK price was then and not sure what it would be with the current price. I'd be tempted to go for the Letus Mini if I was in the market for a 35mm adapter now though. With only half a stop of light loss, flip as standard, and no need for a close up filter. Although the look you get from the current SG Pro Rev3 still appears more film like from different tests I've seen.
