What tripod do you recommend for this camcorder thats under $100? If possible please direct a link. Thanx.

For under $100.00? I was going to suggest a Miller DS5, but that's a way more than a 100 Bucks.

What kind of deals can you get on Miller tripods for us folks in the states Frank. ;) The DS10 with a mid-spreader looks really nice.

Plasma, they are expensive everywhere. But..., at http://www.leoscamera.com here in Vancouver, it's only $1500 Canadian. That includes the case. Leo's is the Canadian distributor for Miller. For even a better deal, you but it from Australia. Info here:

I'm going to go with these guys, in January. The prices quoted are in Australian Dollars.

$1095 Australian is less than $600 US. Of course, there is shipping cost, but at that price, well, you just can't beat that in Canada and the USA.

Wow! Thanks! That is a great price. $600 from AU, I'll have to let my friends know about this. If shipping is low enough, I will definetly go with them!
