Small 2nd camera
Hi Folks,
I am a wildlife photographer using an XL2,300mm lens.Manfrotto 351/503 plus all the usual accessories which I am sure you will know is very heavy and bulky. As I often have to walk and climb great distances and sometimes have to fit into very small spaces. I am looking to purchase a SMALL pocket size camera which will be compatable with the XL2, 16X9, and give results which I can edit into XL2 aquired film without to much loss of quality. Does anyone else do this and can recomend a suitable camera.

Have you considered the Canon GL2? Or the HV30, then just down convert the footage. Just throwing out some ideas...

The HV-20 and HV-30 fit your bill perfectly.

It's obviously not a substitute for an XL2, not even by a long stretch, but the nice thing with a dinky camera is that people don't realize that you are actually shooting a video. -- peer
