WTB: Sony Fx1 stuff :)
 

Hello

Just recently acquired the quite magnificent sony Fx1 - and am currently looking for a couple things

1) Soft carry case (doesn't have to be fancy, just something easy to carry with good padding and enough compartments)
2) Tripod - I would love to have a good set of sticks for it - again nothing too crazy but something with a fluid head and a strong pair of legs

That's pretty much it for now - there definitely is a budget as i wouldn't want to be spending much more than $50-$70 for the case and $150-$170 for the sticks but if you could let me know what you have, i would definitely appreciate it. Thanks again!

Consider this cheap case hard case as an altenative, adding your own padding. I use this for my FX1, and it fits fine, and I use padding to keep it from bouncing off sides.

Then take the money saved and try to move up in tripods.

I you are stuck in cheap tripod land, I have used the Velbron Videomate 607 for the FX1, and using it carefully, can get acceptable results. The head is "fluid", at least in feel, if not actually.

Clearing out to buy second camera.

1 battery Panasonic CGA-D54s 5400 mAh
1 battery DVXuser D54 5000 mAh
1 battery Panasonic CGR-D16 1600 mAh
1 B&W uv filter 72 mm

and all the standard package coming with the DVX100A, charger, remote, etc... $ 2 600 cdn

I can email photos on demand.

HVR-A1U for sale
 

I have a Sony HVR-A1U for sale that has a bad iLink connection. I sent it to Sony and they want $1400 to repair it (too much for me to afford). The camera still works fine aside from the iLink issue. This would make a great second or third unit for someone who needs another HDV cam.

This is my only HDV camera so I have no way to pull the tapes off once recorded since I am unable to use the iLink anymore. I don't have the market demand here to justify the repair costs.

I have some accessories for this camera too that I will include with it or sell separately. Current retail prices listed.

I have:
(1) Sony .7x wide angle lens [VCL-HG0737Y] *$129.95*
(1) Cavision lens hood for Sony WA lens [LH-77] *$39.95*
(1) Canon .7x wide angle lens [WD-H37] *$149.95*
(2) Extended Sony batteries [NP-QM71D] *$69.95*
(1) Sony Mini charger [BC-TRM] *$36.99*
(1) Tiffen Soft F/X 3 37mm lens filter [37SFX3] *$40.20*

and of course the complete HVR-A1U with all original accessories and packaging.

Camera with original accessories I will sell for $1,300. I will sell everything together including the additional accessories for $1,700.

Please PM me with offers. This could be an extremely good deal for someone with multiple HDV cams or an alternate method for pulling HDV off the tapes without the on camera iLink.

you still have the hvx available? I am looking for one. do you have Barry's book and any p2 cards available?

Bryon, I just emailed you.

Thanks Chris for your insight.. you're right about the sticks.. i guess i'm just feverishly hoping someone out there would have something in my price range - as for the case, i've had hard cases before and while they have their place (and i'll probably end up getting one later) i think i'd want to go with a soft case for now as it's much easier to lug around - course that's just my opinion

Azden VHS wireless receiver and Mike sender!
 

Having won DV#7, I received the great G2 wireless system from Guy Cochran at the DVeStore. I also bought the matching wireless mike sender/shotgun sender for this unit. Thanks very much Guy!

No longer needed and up for sale is my other unit, an Azden VHS unit with the wireless receiver and the shotgun mike sender.

Azden WX/T-Pro Sender and Azden WR-PRO receiver. I have put links to the current prices below. These units work great, but I have too much stuff now. Someone else can get some use out of it.

New around $220.00, you can have them for $120.00 shipped in the 48 states.

Thanks and ask any questions you need to.

Anybody out there even thinking about selling one in the next couple months?

Wanted: Varizoom Aviator
 

If you have one or know of somebody selling one, please let me know. I may also consider the Varizoom prolite or a similar Steadicam product.

FS: Magiqcam with 4" Glidecam monitor
 

I'm looking at selling my Magiqcam IIA setup and getting into a slightly higher priced unit as I really enjoy this rigs and they have worked well for us.

Magiqcam, which I believe is now out of business, sold their units as pretty complete kits which include:
-vest
-dual spring arm (holds up to 15 lbs)
-sled
-adapter for balancing the unit on a c-stand
-plate for mounting a battery and one for mounting a monitor

I can also include a Glidecam L4-pro 4" monitor which is a really good monitor for use with the Magiqcam. Has plenty of picture controls and is nice and small. Comes with the standard battery that lasts a couple hours. I also have a generic lithium ion battery (not included) which can power the monitor for several hours. I can add this one in for extra or point yu in the right direction to grab one.

This unit is functionally perfect. It has had some minor problems in the past that have all been completely fixed or had small parts replaced. Everything is working as it should right now. Everything will shop in a custom hard case made for the Magiqcam.

I would like $1500US with everything for the Magiqcam and the glidecam monitor, or $1300US without the monitor (it is very usable without an external screen, just more fun that way and very helpful for 35mm adapters).

Check out video samples on our website at www.still-motion.ca that were all shot with the Magiqcam.

Patrick

I'm pretty interested. Does the receiver plug in to XLR or would I need to get an adapter for that? Antennas included? Also, how is everything powered?

Just like the pictures show. Out of the receiver is a mini jack, transmitter is female XLR. Antenna is on the receiver, transmitter antenna is internal.

Item is Sold!

FS: dual arm shoulder support/brace
 

hello...

i've upgraded to the dvrig pro, and i'm selling the following shoulder support:

http://www.downwiththefuture.com/ima...lder_brace.jpg

i'm not sure of the manufacturer, make or model, but it is similar to the image2000 shoulder support seen here:

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/cont...ughType=search

there are some signs of wear, but, as you can see, the unit is in very good condition.

price to sell at $60 paypal'd and shipped anywhere in CONUSA.

Model number? 2A, 3P, something else?

I'm looking, too, Patrick.
If you fall onto more than 1 let me know!

-Ken

Thats a good question, since there website is no longer up, how do I find out?

I think this is one of the earlier models but the higher end one with the dual articulated arm with a spring in each and a higher weight capacity. I thought this could be further upgraded to hold more weight, which us why I think it is right in the middle.

If you can give me any info on how to determine which one it is, that would be great.

Patrick

shoulder support has been sold. thanks.

I just did a Google on Magiqcam.
Several sites came up with their product info. Not all of them are on one site.
Might take some surfing to get the particular info on all applicable models.

I'm 95% sure this is the 2a or 11a depending on how you want to spell it. It looks exactly the same and the specs line up. I'll do some more research tomorrow.

Patrick

Just confirmed with some older documents, this is the IIA setup.

What about power? What kind of batteries does everything take?

The receiver takes one 9v battery and the sender takes one AA battery.

Thanks---Mike

I have a buyer for the lens...I will sell the wide angle adaptor for $200 OBO. Remember that this is a Century Precision, best glass available and brand new something like $700, I think. Make sure to read the two caveats listed in the first post before contacting me. Thanks!

Patrick,

If you still have it I want it. I sent you an e-mail on this earlier today. Let me know if ya still have it.

-Don

Hi Don,

I never got your email but I did catch your post so I sent you an email back.

A1
 

I may be willing to sell my A1. It is essentially new. I bought my A1 from B&H and it had a problem with manual focus so they replaced it with a new one. I have had it since Feb 7. I haven't even taken the manual out of its' wrapper.

It is really more camera than I need. I am retired and not using it for income.

I will entertain offers.

capnvideo@bellsouth.net

Hi John,

Sent you an email. I would love to get a number so we can work out a price and payment method that works.

You can get my number through the forum if you click on my name and go to our website.

Patrick

Might have used A1 in late May
 

Hi all -

I'm going to be shooting a documentary in Fiji in May, and I'm trying to convince the backers to invest in an A1 for the duration of the shoot.

Would anyone be interested in the camera once I return? If I can get a decent price for it, they're much more likely to pay for the camera.

We will be doing beach shoots, but I've done them before and will take very good care of the camera. We're using a changing bag for tape reloads on the beach, and the UV filter won't leave the camera.

I figure if I knock $500 off the purchase price, someone might be willing to bite.

What do you guys say? Again, it would be available in late May or early April.


Cheers,


Ryan

Sold! Thanks Patrick

I would be interested depending, of course, what the purchase price was that you're taking $500 off of. That's a bit undefined as well.
I mean if your purchase price was $4000 I probably wouldn't be interested.

-Ken

Yup, sold to me. Just liked to give a positive reference for Jay Stebbins in case he sells anything in the future; you can be assured he's straight up. Even sent the camera out without waiting for my money orders to arrive (going on my Ebay rating).

Sold.

For $650 shipped if anyone cares.

Hi Jay, do you have the name or link to that bag? I'm curious about it. Thanks.

not so sure about those guys..
 

I ordered a boom pole via ebay from their store, which at the time of ordering said they had 18 in stock..I never heard anything from them at all,so I started calling them to find out what was happening. I kept getting the run around on when it would ship because they had to wait for an order to come in from Rode.I kept getting various dates for shipping, none of which came to be..I left phone msgs and never got a response. Finally this week after numerous calls I got an answer that the product finally shipped. I am suppose to get it today. I ordered this on jan 22, and now its feb 16th...good thing I wasnt in a hurry for it. The main thing that upsets me is stating they had 18 in stock when ordering, so I would assume I would be one of the lucky 18, and the fact they were never good at returning calls...maybe you will have better luck..John
