HandCam, what camera are you using?

Recommended Posts

Hey, I need to upgrade my cameras. I have the old PC models, 5,9,101 and they are now dead. So I need to buy a couple new cameras ASAP!!

Any info would be appreciated!

I use a HC40 with a Royal 0.3X. I am guessing the HC 20/30 or the newer HC 32/42 would also work well.... Tehy are small and light.

They are on E-bay for a good price as well..

Yep, I have a couple of HC40s I use. One has a .3 diamond lens, the other has a .25 lens.

However, I'm starting to hanker for a HD model.



No one makes a wrist camglove that *easily* holds an HDV camcorder. When I got the Ozone (review on DMN soon), it was the only big disappointment. I've modified it somewhat to hold an HC5, but it's still clunky and inelegant. Throw a .0175 or .25 lens on there though...makes for very big pix on your wrist.

The 96 sony is working great. $650 at cameraworld.com
By the way, Oden says to piss off. Tell RedEye to give me a call.
You still looking for help for the MOAB? I'd like to have an excuse to get out of work for a weekend.

Hey...! :P

And besides that, have you made those gloves up yet? :ph34r:

None of the gloves (that I own anyway) are made for the form factor of a CX7 or any of the other AVCHD camcorders (all of which are similar form factors of short/wide).[:/]
The guys at Ozonefly had indicated they'd be building a glove that managed these cams, but the one I got, although it's very flexible in the camera tray, won't come close to holding a CX7.
