any idea what it will cost?

Yeah how much is this going to set people back?

Most likely 4 to 5 thousand

looks like someone dropped a Xl1s in a can of black paint. I would love to save up and buy this thing but if I got it I would need to buy a new computer and a few harddrives

one of my editors has an HD card so I'm safe on that but in terms of hard drive space I already have about 2 terabytes worth of space to spare.

I don't like the idea of dropping $4,000 on a camera but after my nex pro wrestling dvd is released and my porn documentary is released I'll definitely want to get this bad ass camera.

This cam is gana be around £3000 to £5000,

As filming and webdesign is soon to be my job, im gana buy this cam sometime in 2006 or a Sony HDR-FX1E... I just need to find out the real price of this cam before making my mind up

I just wet my panties.

For some reasons I dislike cams like this.. dunno why but I don't like the whole big eyeviewer thingey..

I didnt about 2 yrs back but fucking love um now

sweet camera. doesn't really look any different from the Canon XL2 except it's black. nice find tho.

Off Topic...

Wow I never knew there was a VX700...

Weak.. how much does that JVC cost?

Fuck that shit...

That'd be way too big to carry around and if it broke I'd fucking flip.

I wouldnt ever take it our filmig skits, I would just use it for making movies and music videos etc

I'd have to get paid shitloads for the videos...
