Hi Chris-
I know you said you'd like to keep the package together but if for any reason you decide to split it up-I'm love to buy the lens.
Thanks!

Tim Borek · February 2nd, 2004, 12:18 PM

I've lowered my price (shipping included) to $130. Please e-mail me (tjvideo@highstream.net) with any questions.

Let me jump in here and say that I too was looking for a JR without the monitor.

I've got a GL2 and figured I didn't need it.

I found a JR with a monitor and after using it for only a few minutes will never use the LCD on my camera while on the JR.

Among the issues why I like it better are:

1. It was always a bit harder to balance correctly with it out.

2. I find I swap back and forth between hands a lot and if I just used the LCD on the camera I wouldn't be able to see it when holding the rig with my left hand.

3. By having the monitor where it is on the JR, you're really able to watch the ground as you move. That's been pretty important to me as I've avoided a few spills.

That's just a few things. I open up the LCD to white balance and check the image, then I only use the monitor on the JR.

It's even one of the old B&W ones and I still prefer it.

So, all that to say, my advice is to go with the one with a monitor. I think you'll find it much more useful.

Charles Papert · February 2nd, 2004, 11:16 PM

This confirms many of my suspicions about the monitor-less JR, Bryan. Suffice to say that as I understand it, many more of the version with the monitor are sold than the one without.

Stuart Brontman · February 3rd, 2004, 02:29 PM

Does the Lowell kit have a number, or is it a conglomeration of lights you bought?

Thanks!

February 3rd, 2004, 03:01 PM

The Lowel was bought is a kit, I believe it is the Ambi Tungsten set.

Brendan Getchel · February 3rd, 2004, 04:06 PM

This is a NIB Century Precision Optics DS-TC20-GL bayonet-mount 2.0x teleconvertor made for the GL1/2 cameras, but I believe it works on the Sony VX2000 as well.

Again, this was our second unit for a backup GL2 that never got used. We moved up to a couple of new DVX100a cameras and sold the GL2's. This TC is truly new-in-box and was purchased late last year from B&H for $399 + shipping.

Here's the B&H URL:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/cont...=252929&is=REG

It works much, much better than expected. I have shot a couple hours of nature (small birds) footage and the recent lunar eclipse (the moon nearly filled the entire screen!) using this TC on a GL2 which makes the GL2 lens an amazing 1600mm @ f/2.8 (just use a STURDY tripod)! When stopped down to f/4 or better any fringing and/or chromatic abberations disappear.

It's an awesome (but heavy) optic that is worth every last penny if you need the length.

Price: $300 shipped (UPS Ground) to CONUS. US residents only, please.

First to CALL and commit gets it.
