007 & the XL1 at DVinfo.net

Bob Zimmerman · November 24th, 2002, 08:28 AM

I went to see the new James Bond movie and in one scene with a bunch of reporters, right there in front is a guy with a XL1. Hollywood likes that camera I think!

Paul Sedillo · November 24th, 2002, 09:22 AM

I "allegedly" saw Jackass and it was used in several of the shots.

Bryan Johannes Onel · November 24th, 2002, 03:14 PM

That proves that an xl1 output to 35mm doesn't look so bad after all ;-)

Michael Wisniewski · November 24th, 2002, 03:50 PM

I wonder if it was NTSC or PAL :-)

Bryan Johannes Onel · November 24th, 2002, 03:52 PM

It would be so neat to have an xl1 with some cool bond features. Like a rocket firing out of your lens :-P

Nathan Gifford · November 24th, 2002, 05:57 PM

I was surprised it was an XL-1 and not an XL-1S. Do you think he was front and center because of a focusing issue??? ;-)

You mean your's doesn't do that?? ;)

Mine's stopped doing the dishes now and my wife is starting to bitch. Guess I'd better buy something new. Wonder if a DVX100 can cook?

Xl1s has got a rocket built in, it fires straight for your wallet.

I passed on the missle launcher option and went for the silver custom case instead. You know, the Z4 Roadster by BMW. Yours did come with a case didn't it?

The green seeking missile is standard, not an option. I would have opted for the m5 case with the 4 pzero no skid rubber feet :)

Or perhaps the Aston Martins er ah er I mean anton bauers

Adrian Douglas · November 24th, 2002, 11:39 PM

Sean Connery seemed to like the Anton Bauers much better too.

Jeff Donald · November 25th, 2002, 07:11 AM

Yah, but since Aston Martin got bought by Ford I think he probably feels a little differently towards them. What is it he drove in this movie? I haven't seen much of the hype surrounding it.

John Locke · November 25th, 2002, 07:21 AM

Ooooh, Jeff. I'm afraid we'll have to have you eliminated for those irreverant words. What did he drive?! Just the sexiest car ever developed!

Imagine plopping your XL1 in that at the end of an all-day shoot, then heading home with the top down, Halle fiddling with the radio by your side...aaaaahhhh...

(By the way, Halle drives a Ford in the movie...wait'll you see it)

Jeff Donald · November 25th, 2002, 07:57 AM

Oh, so they both drove Fords.
