XDCAM Discs?

Where is the best place to get discs and what are the best prices in the UK?
I am about to buy a 350 camera (£12500 from Proactive)

By far the best place to get XDCAM discs in the UK is from WTS Broadcast. You'll need to order by phone. Get the TDK discs. They are cheaper than the Sony ones and have (apparently) a more durable coating.

Tell em I sent you!

I've never had any trouble with WTS. I've had weird encounters with Stanleys, but WTS have always been on the ball and never failed to get my orders to me the next day even if I order late afternoon.

That KVJfairdeal place is more expensive than WTS too, and I bet they won't budge on the price either. But you can give it a go.

APR Media have them available via thier on-line store. Take credit cards and paypal. Not always the cheapest but very fast service.

Certainly not the cheapest! £20, and no discount for buying over a certain number. Hmmm. Nope, WTS still has my vote. Fast AND cheap.

Thanks

Hi, this info has been useful, I have done a deal for £15.85 from Focus Move, http://www.focusmove.com/ I have an account to buy DVD's from them.

I got the camera today, just starting to explore the settings etc, first impression is very positive.
