Really? That will be a killer set up then! By competition I figure you mean the M2? $450 sounds like a big difference. You can get a decent set of Lomo oct-19 primes for that money.
If you got those results with still lenses I can only imagine what a good PL glass will do. Are you going to post clips shot with the set up any soon? Can't wait to see some footage.

Hi,

Yes, the price of the SGpro Rev2 PL will be $1300 USD. Now compare the total price of the others out there...

Im shooting with the HVX200 and Rev2 with PL lenses on Tuesday, so expect some footage soon.

Yay! You've finally revealed the price of the sgpro with pl mount!

Double yay! We're gonna see footages from a hvx with the sgro and pl mount!

I will be putting up some footage in the next few days. It looks great, and using the adapter was simple and I've found it to be very well constructed.

I picked it not just because of the price, but the footage shot by Timur is very warm and fitting of the type of look I go for with political spots.

Hey Jason and/or Jim:

Any footage yet wtth FX1?

Sounds good Wayne. Looking forward to the clips.

Wayne!

Perhaps you've been busy, but how is your progress with the hvx + sgpro PL footages? They turned out good?

Hi,

I did not manage to make the trip, however the guy has just setup his HVX200 with SGpro PL, and he is testing it all out this weekend. I know he will send me some footage soon.

Also, I have just sent my demo unit to the chaps manufacturing the PL mounts. These should also be released in a few weeks time.

I'm eager to see some but none posted as of yet :/ I have other prospective purchasers on hold until it happens... I'm pretty confident the Go35Pro paired with the FX1 would be killer even in HDV mode.
