Still on the lookout.

Keith,

What's your budget? Have you checked ebay - look for some lowel products, specifically the Omni or DP. Omni is 500watts max and the DP is 1k. You can get barn doors for them, scrims.. not bad lights. I own some and use them along with my ARRI's and Softboxes.

Figure out if you really need fresnels, they are very expensive but great for throwing light far.. I like them for wide master shots for that purpose.

Keith I just took a look, there is a DP light with 1k bulb going for around $150, and a few omni lights up for sale. There's a whack of tota lights too which I've only ever used with an umbrella for fill to bring levels up in a room.

Lastly there is one auction with 2 lowel pro lights - these are a GREAT substitute for ARRI 150w which are like $300 each normally. The good thing with lowel pro is they go up to 200w I think..

Do not buy anything without barn doors - you might as well buy construction lights from home depot (yet another reasonable option if you want CHEAP and can build your own bard doors out of aluminum painted black if desired)

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any lighting related questions.

I'm looking for a 52mm thread Dave. I just found out that Optex went out of
business a few years ago. Apparently, many thought that the quality was better that Century Optics so I'm trying to find out for myself. I would appreciate it if you can let me know if you find one. Thanks!

52 mm huh? For a TRV900? Yes, John Beale's site showed that the Optex beat the Century.

WTB: Various gear, mostly audio
 

I'm about to make a purchase, and since funds are tight, I figured I'd see if anyone happened to have some of these items lying around that they'd be willing to part with. Next to the items I'm listing what they cost new.

WTB 16* Canon manual servo lens for XL
 

I´m looking for the 16* manual lens for the canon XL series as I have given up waiting for a new HD version from Canon.

Three of them for sale on Ebay right now, seem to be running around 800-900 US dollars. Not sure if it would be worth it to buy and ship where you're at, might be easier to buy a new one.

Sure do. I have a verified business account. PM for details.

Stuff
 

I have the following:

Gitzo boom pole and mount. Used once. G556 still in box, & Audio technica 8415 Excellent condition.

Green screen not sure if it is 8x8 or 10x10. When i get a measure tape I will be able to confirm. Like new but would need ironing or steaming.

Sennheiser HD280 pro headphones. Like new, folding, and very comfortable as well as accurate sound.

contact me at: 415-377-4336 if interested.

I have a K-tek K-CAM-SSM that I'll sell for $65 shipped.

Hi Ben -

I'll keep an eye out on EBay - I stumbled across one at one time (Optex, 52mm no less!), interesting piece, definitely not a zoom through situation... when I sold mine there were a couple others that popped up too. They went for around $300-350, so you've got a budget to keep in mind... not bad when they were 1K new.

I don't know whether the Optex and the Century were actually different or not, when I researched it looked to me like somehow the two were related business wise... but the Optex is a solid piece of glass. Sort of superfluous for me once I went to shooting HDV, but an interesting way to increase the effective resolution of the camera.

I'll start watching for one, I always find the strangest stuff on Ebay! One might just turn up!

Buyer flaked ...

Hi Richard.
Thanks. They only ship to the US, but I had a reply from one seller just now. He is willing to ship to Norway, but can only accept wire transfer. I´ve only ever used paypal. Would you recommend doing a wire transfer?

I recently bought a Sachtler tripod here from a member of DVinfo. Used paypal and it worked like a dream (Thanks Laszlo). Shipped from Canada to Norway in a week.

That´s the reason I was hoping to find one here. Feels safer to buy here.

The price in Norway is exactly twice the price in the US. I would have to pay the custom fee though. Still worth it

The items I purchased from Paul were extremely well packaged, and shipped promptly.

All of the items were as described, or in even better condition.

Another very smooth transaction from a great DVInfo.net member.

I completely understand preferring to buy within 'the community' here. More like buying 'from family'.

I can't reccomend what course of action for you is best. I HATE paypal, for reasons too involved to go into here. I know I wouldn't do a wire transfer unless I had a good phone number and address for the person on the other end, for sure.

Your call. The 16x comes up now and again on this board, but not as frequently as on Ebay... so I guess it depends on your needs.

Hey Tom. That John Beale site is awesome.

Thanks again Dave!

FS in US: SONY HVR-Z1U HDV Camera & Accessories
 

Hi,

I am selling my SONY HVR-Z1U 1080i 3 CCD HDV Camcorder + All Original Accessories + (1) NP-F970 Battery, (1) Petrol Raincoat, (1) Firewire Cable, (2) HDV Tapes & Sony Carry Case in nice condition.

The camera is used, but has been treated very well. You can see the hours on the photo of the hours meter below. Everything performs perfectly, and I believe the buyer will be very satisfied with this kit. Everything you need to start shooting is included in this sale. If you are reading this you are probably familiar with this camcorder, but one nice feature I like to point out is that this camera can shoot both NTSC and PAL footage (This is the U.S. model). Any additional questions, please feel free to email me at any time.

I would like to get $3,200 for everything. I will cover the Paypal and shipping costs.

Here are some photos:

Here is a list of everything included in this sale:

Sony HVR-Z1U Camcorder
Sony Deluxe Carry Case (plenty of room for camera and all accessories)
Petrol PRC-S-HDV Raincoat
(2) Sony DVM63 HDV Tapes (63 minute tapes, both are sealed and new)
AC-VQ850 AC Adaptor/Charger
Remote Commander Unit RMT-841
A/V Cable
Component Video Cable
Firewire Cable
Sony Cleaning Tape
Shoulder Strap
Large Eyecup
Shoe Extender
Lens Hood with Integral Lens Cap
NPF-970 InfoLithium battery (battery will last a very long time, and holds a perfect charge)

Note: I also have this camera currently listed on Ebay. I figured I would offer it for sale here at a cheaper price for DV Info members. If someone wishes to purchase this camera, I will promptly end the Ebay auction (which currently has no bids).

Thanks,

John Dewey

as new condition, v low hours. 3 8gb p2 cards. P2 store. Century Optics wide angle, portabrace cover, LOADS of batteries. Original box, mic, charger.

Cost me about £7000

Literally a steal at £3300

London based but will ship anywhere in UK for £15

But Phil you're practically giving it away

I know, I know. It is pounds though and I need the cash to get the XDCAM EX!

What do you think I should be asking?

I'd say at least 50% of your original purchase price (or current best dealer price, whichever is lower) -- you can still edit your original post!

Ok Thanks!

See even Chris thinks it is a steal!

Hate to see it go, but there comes a point where you do actually have too many cameras. As much as I love it, I need the EX more as it matches my full size F350 perfectly

be wary
 

be wary of this seller as his veracity has been questioned on dvxuser

I recently purchased two items from Paul.

They were in excellent shape, better than described and clean.

The items were very well packaged and shipped promptly.

Paul only charged the exact shipping cost.

Trade FX1 for HX-A1 and cash?
 

Have FX1 in great shape around 100 hours, sold 2 others on here so you can ask the buyers, would like an HX-A1 to trade + cash? any takers?
