How much is the XD cam 350/330 in US with standard lens ?

There is no standard lens. The autofocus Canon that is packaged sometimes with the 330 in Europe and Japan is not offered by Sony USA.

Street price on a 330 body is about $14,500. 350 body is about $23,000.

Lenses are all over the place, from about $2k for 1/2" SD industrial lens that is "ok", if you're not too demanding, to $13-15K for am upper end 1/2" HD lens designed for the camera. A lot of people are spending $8k-ish for the Fuji and Canon mid-range lenses designed for the cam.

My that was fast ! Less than 2 mins after posting. Got to love this board.

Thanks a lot Nate.

At about 32K the 350 is well worth it I think. I saw it at NAB this year and absolutely loved it. Couldnt afford it at that time so had to settle for HD 100 a good camera but not in the same league as the XD cam. I hope to buy one in a couple of months.
