pricing on full kit ....
 

In the FAQ:"Price & Availability
The SI-1920HDVR is priced below $20k and will be available for delivery in Q3 2006."
I assume you've got a price in mind for the camera with the seagate drives and battery power. Any idea what that would be?

We're working on final pricing, but it's still in the $20K ball-park range for the full camera body product that we were showing at NAB.

Hope it comes out soon ...
 

Can't wait to see what you've come up with!

Will the full kit price include Lens? I thought that was posted in the past, just wondering if that is still the case.

I think ...
 

two fujinon C mount lenses are to be included with the camera.

Also, if you use a seperate PC for editing then the one you capture wth, another 1499.00 for the Cineform raw codec (Prospect HD).

No response from Silicon Imaging
 

I tried to contact Silicon Imaging in two occasions (to the email they show on their website), and I got no response. It's sad because this looks like a good camera to buy. But, if I am going to send them my money, I would like some kind of customer care.

Great response!
 

Thanks Jason for your fast response. I had tried to contact SI before, but it seems that I was going in the wrong direction. Jason gave me his and Steve's email and I hope we can do business in the near future.

No Problem :)

Are they any problems with the delivery of the Altasens chip? Also, if it's alright to ask, which model are they using?

Thanks in advance

Any time soon?
 

Will this camera be available this year? I know you don't want to set dates, but I need to make a decision... This seems like a great camera, but how long could it take? Thanks guys.

Yes, definitely this calendar year.

Is this still going to be delivered in this caleder year?

Still the plan for the Mini . . . although the full-body SI-2K has been scheduled for January release . . . so yes, the plan is to ship the Mini this calendar year.

Im still tossing up between the mini with a good lense or the DVR with stock lense - could any of you guys convince which one would be a better go for an indie filmaker like myself, who is editing on a mac?
