You my not be looking at the full price. You can't just buy the first thing on the list, the mount is extra, the PL rings are extra.

You need:

Adapter
Mount
Lens Ring

And probably some other minor things, but that should cover it.

Mizell over at ZGC (zgc.com) is who to talk to about a package...you're looking at around $8500 with everything but the camera and lenses.

A couple of Mini35 units have been sold through posts at DVInfo.net and we are trying to guide everyone trying sell one to sell it here. There are quite a few units out there then would have been led to believe earlier in the thread.

The price on P+S's website is in Euros. Once you figure in conversion rate, taxes, duty, shipping, and handling you then begin to arrive at the US price.

The new 400 Series adapter is being introduced at IBC as we speak. This unit is required if you want to use the adapter with the DVX100.

If you're sticking with XL1s then we are currently selling the last of the 300 Series (formerly ver 2002.C) for 15% off the list cost. A brand new full kit can be out the door beggining at US$7,200.
