Don't junk that PD150 just yet, it may have an afterlife as a second camera for projects you are shooting with an HD camcorder but delivering in SD, now that you can shoot in 16x9 with the adapter.

Don't know if you guys have heard about this, but Schneider/Century are closing out their stock on these adapters for VX/PD and other 55mm lens cameras. These 16x9 adapters originally sold for $895 and are close out at $99!!!

I spoke with Nathan at Century Optics in Van Nuys a few minutes ago, and he has fifteen of the screw-in models left. The bayonet style sold out yesterday before I heard about this deal. Don't sweat in; I don't imagine you'll need to quickly switch adapters in the middle of a 16x9 shoot.

You can call Nathan at 818-766-3715, press ext 103 (or look up the 800#)

Good luck!

LOL. I should of known you guys would be way ahead of me on this. Guess I'll have to start hanging out here again instead of the anti-administration sites. BTW, you can catch my first YouTube video from an anti-war demonstration a couple months ago in Washington here:

Thought I would shoot a couple reels of tape, and have over four hours of footage from an amazing day in Washington.

Just a reminder, we don't get into politics on this site. No matter how strongly you feel about a political issue, there's always somebody else from the other side more opinionated than you are. Discussions over "who is right" serve only to polarize an online community, so we just avoid them altogether. Thanks for understanding!
