2X Firestore FS-HD 250GB for sale
 
I have 2 Firestore FS-HD I used for a day for a commercial shoot, They are in perfect condition I even left the plastic on the face so there is no scratches and did not register warranty either..I did upgrade these to 250GB hard drives.. I recorded with my GY-HD100 in (m2t) format 720p and the other recorder HV30 in (m2t) format 1080i all worked great and dragged and dropped files to my computer with no problem..

I need to sell these so I can upgrade to the FS-HD100
I would like to sell both at once but I can seperate if nessesary..
I will ship UPS and accept Paypal

Price $1100 seperate or $2100 for both
Shipping will be $25 for one or $40 for both


Here is a picture of both repackaged

would be interested for one, but i can take both for 1800 +shipment (i am located in switzerland so shipment will be a bit higher).
I would use it with Sony FX1 in 1080i50, is it compatible (i think so, it is just not compatible in DV mode) ?
Is there any charger or power supply ?
are they 100V only or 100-240V ?
you can be paid immediately with paypal.

SONY VCL-HG0758 58mm 0.7x High Grade Wide Angle Converter Lens
 
I've been going through my office de-cluttering and found this in the back of a drawer. I bought it 3 years ago new for a shoot with my friends old pd170. We used it for a day or two and I put it in the drawer. I can't believe it's been there for 3 years. I don't know anyone with a PD150, 170 or VX2000, and It won't work on my other cameras. It may work on other cameras, I don't know.

Anyone want it?

Great shape, caps and bag included.

I think their around 250 new now and this one has been used once maybe twice, So how about $130+shipping. O.B.O.

I can't wait to see what else is in this rack of drawers. I was just wanting to sell of my JVC gear and now I find I've collected a bunch of stuff over the years.

send me a pm

Thanks,
Bryan

Hey Giroud
 
I am not sure about the 1080 50i ....They both come with chrargers/powersupplys and it looks to be 110 dont see anything that says 240... I do have to stay with my price, these were only used for a 6 hour shoot and they are still New... also if your out of US your paypal would have to be a verified account... I can offer free shiping if you bought both to your location..

Hope this helps!

Giroud Francois July 25th, 2008 06:14 PM

mmh... not sure about that deal. sorry to be nasty about your offer but...
same item at B&H (60gig drive) is 700$.
and a 250gig 2.5 drive is about 100$.
so i can get that new for 800$.
if i replace the 60gig drive with a 32gig SSD (solidstate drive) , it cost me about 150$ more (250 for the 64 gig version) , so 850$ for a 32 gig SSD firestore HD
still far from your price....

seems the SSD mentioned above is a total crap, so do not take this one as reference.
but it should work into a firestore for video recording

Steven Houser July 25th, 2008 06:30 PM

Thanks for your input!
 
Really great and all your pricing! but.....I bought 3 of the Firestore FS-HD 60GB and bought lowest price Hard drives $146 same manufacture as the originals.Then upgraded all 3 took about 3 hours and one of the FS-HD 250GB wouldnt work! So,,,I tried everything to get it to work again! NOW JUNK!

Long story short!
1 out of 3 chance It will turn to junk that I actually know of!
So it is well worth buying a working upgraded Firestore with all updates with a harddrive same as the original manufactures.

I am usually the one to say Live it up "take a chance" but not in this case, Im out the cash "wish I would have bought someone else's pre upgraded FS-HD and would have saved...

Amos Kim July 25th, 2008 07:26 PM

Giroud, can you really take a firestore unit and replace the HD with one of those SSD units and have the firestore function using the new memory?

Webb Pickersgill July 25th, 2008 11:19 PM

XDCam, with a RED on order.

Giroud Francois July 26th, 2008 03:57 AM

as as i can say, SSD unit are totally compatible with IDE/SATA drives, except they are supposed to eat less energy (half power is required, so longer battery life) and be faster (that depend model and technology).
The one mentioned above is on the cheap side (MLC instead SLC technology) but with 50/20 MB/s for read/write it is still a lot faster than needed to capture video.
they are straight replacement for usual harddisk.
There are many people upgrading their firestore and few bad news. (but dismantling a firestore is always a chance to break it).
Usually people upgrading firestore are looking for bigger drives, so SSD with 32 and 64 gig are not really better (unless you got a 40 gig model) , but if your are looking for a totally solid state system, there is no other way for instance.I ordered the Transcend 64gig yesterday (less than 300$ with international shipment) and will test it in a laptop or usb external box to see if video capture is ok.
then i will look for a cheap FS-4 HD or dismantle my DSR-DU1 to replace the 80 GB disk (originally was 40 and i already upgraded, but unfortuntely this device is not accpeting HDV) . FS 5 is coming so there will be plenty on ebay soon.
