Not with some of the women I know. My wife has expensive tastes.

Have Mercy!
 

Fred Wrote Again!: Is the professional Panasonic AG-DVC200 camcorder black? I would thing she is how much did it cost?


I write: I GIVE UP!!

James, it's his 1st cam, or so he says. At least he's hitting the books. The shoe store must not be that busy. (Just wait for the pre-X-mas rush.) :-)

Answer the most important question, would you: Is it black? No need to be ashamed. If it's non-black *and* you make money with it, it's still "professional"--as long as you've read the manual. You know, one weekend with the manual and you, too, can be a professional film-maker. Ask Fred. He did it. Go to a hobby shop and get some black model paint and a small brush.
Note to Fred: You may want to do this yourself. And for the icing on the cake, go get a cheap photographers matte box/bellows.
Now you can start charging!

DVC200 is black and a couple of the parts are grey.

So it's not 100% black? Worth keeping in mind when considering a new purchase.

Question is I have to ask what would black have to do with what the camera does if you don't mind me asking?

Quite interesting thread!

I am now really thinking of painting the red parts of my XL1 in Black! This should give me some extra lines of resolution and a shallow depth of field!!!!!!

Professional is color blind
 

You guys are just kill'n me. I love it!!

My cell phone is black, but it still drops calls.

I feel like I'm talking to Forrest Gump but I like his drive!
