Does the M2 work with the FX1
 

I haven't seen the FX1 mentioned in this thread.

Thanks

Probably because this is the "Canon XL2 Watchdog" forum. The thread was, in the beginning, discussing the Red Rock Micro on the Canon, not a Sony.

But thanks for stopping by Paul.

Just kidding - Paul, to answer your question, yes. And to make up for my smart a$$ comment, here's a direct link to some very nice images of the M2 attached to a Sony HDV unit:

Thanks Derek
 

I didn't realize it was a Canon forum, but thanks for answering and also for the pics.

Thanks

Kelly, Derek, et al...


I rest my case. ;-)

Uh Oh,

Here we go again. :)

I think that the QUALITY of work that the filmmaker does is the MOST important to a client (and for themselves). But, I do think how equipment looks plays a role as well.

Should it? I don't think so, but it does. Just like other things such as personal & social skills in interacting with a client.

Recently I showed a friend of mine (who does not have anything to do with filmmaking, video work, etc.) my XL2. Just my XL2, as it was before I had any other gear. His first remark - "Oh man, that's cool. This thing has got to film good stuff." and he knows I'm a total novice at this. And while he was saying this and looking at the camera you could tell he was just in shock.

So when someone says "I must admit it does look the part!!!," I can understand where they are coming from. Emotion gets the best of logic in many cases. Or at least I know thats true for me. :)

So Paul,

When are you going to get your M2?
