Pal Hv20 Shipping Now In The Uk! at DVinfo.net

Peter Hatton · April 18th, 2007, 10:38 AM

Just a quick note let everyone know who has been waiting for the UK PAL release of the HV20 that mine has been shipped today from DABS.COM (in the uk) and will be arriving at my home tomorrow. DABS have confirmed this today.The website at the time of writing this is showing it as "awaiting stock" but it may be worth giving them a call if you are in the market for the PAL version. Hope this is of use to someone!

Great news Peter!

If you are able to upload some 25p (with or without cine) to snapfish etc it would be really really appreciated!! I am intersted to know whther the haprness setting -1 to +1 makes any difference in cine mode using 25p

Thanks in avdance

Bummer - just seen dabs have put there price up by £50!

Peter Hatton · April 18th, 2007, 01:02 PM

Hi y'all, yes i will look at the possibility of uploading a few clips inc. 25p. Dabs have indeed put the price up today, glad i pre-ordered mine at the £733 price!! What im wondering is how 25p will edit within Sony Vegas, as its a new format for me, will give a brief rundown of my first impressions within a day or two...stay tuned.

Glenn Thomas · April 19th, 2007, 07:33 AM

Congratulations on being the first on here with a PAL version! Which reminds me, I better called the camera shop I ordered mine through sometime tomorrow.

Peter Hatton · April 19th, 2007, 10:45 AM

Hi all, just to say again that the UK PAL HV20 IS DEFINATLEY IN MY POSSESION! It seems i was one of the very first to get one but ive had that before with DABS! Its also without doubt the uk version, its got uk moulded plug and "25p" and "PAL" logos emblazened on it. The box also has a label that says "HV20 KIT GB", presumably the GB means Great Britain. Guess i was just lucky to get one this early!! If anybody wishes a photo drop me a line with your email and i will send you one. Im well happy!

Fergus Anderson · April 19th, 2007, 11:08 AM

good for you Peter you lucky fellow

Im anxious to see some raw 25p footage and play with it in vegas!

Povl H. Pedersen · April 19th, 2007, 02:19 PM

I also got a track&trace number tonight. Danish postal service has registered my package somewhere abroad (probably just across the border to Sweden or Germany).

So I hope to get it tomorrow on my birthday. But maybe it will take longer and I have to wait to monday ? :(

The company still lists stock date for 23rd, some other mail order companies are writing different dates in next week, some still may 1st up to may 15th.

Price in Denmark still only 1 UKP above its lowest. Lets see what happens when they can deliver and get in stock.

John Millar · April 19th, 2007, 04:17 PM

ordered mine today in stock from askdirect.co.uk will have it in couple of
days looks like the trickle has started.

HV-20 reached Sweden today! So I just put in my "pick up order", hopefully I'll have it in my hand at tuesday!
