I have a shoot were I need to shoot with a P-2 camera. I am looking for an owner to do th engineering and sound, while I shoot with the camera. I am in Northern New jersey. If you know anyone please let me know who and how much. The shoot is on july 26th.

This sounds like those photographers at Disney that want to take your picture with your camera....

Seriously though... kidding aside, can you elaborate on the shoot?

I am doing a shoot for Panasonic at their facility and need to use the P2 camera. I don't own one and don't have time to get up to speed if I rented one.
I'm figuring if I can find someone with a P2, I can rent from them and have them on the shoot as a sound person/engineer. This way I can give Panasonic what they want and not look like an idiot.

Can't Panasonic just lend you a camera if you're doing the shoot for them? Sounds like the most obvious solution to me.

Why would Panasonic hire someone who does not even own the product?
There are many qualified HVX200 owners in that neck of the woods.

I own an HVX, and am not far from you, though not sure of my availability on that date. Can you provide more info re: the shoot, e.g. the location, purpose, size of crew, etc?

Why don't you call me. 201-280-0876. I can't write out all this info, I come from the talking era.

If you have ever worked for one of these big electonic guys, you'd know. They have to go through so much internal crap to get a camera that it isn't worth to them. It seems silly to any thinking human, but that's how these companies work. They would rather pay some one to bring in their own equipment than to run the corporate gaunlet and actually save the company money.
