mccordia 74 #27 January 13, 2009 Id the width of the camera is smaller a lot of duc-tape could so itI love the helmets with enclosed/integrated camera boxes, but once they discontinue 'your' model, you're sorta f*cked..And yea...if this thing fro sure accepts the HypeEye (even if its only showing its on/off/standbye) I think Im ordering.. Sure the CCD wont be as good as the CX etc cams. But actually having a fixed lens and no OIS makes a world of difference.. Waiting for a Dbox to be produced in this size will be a whole other matter though.. JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waiting for a Dbox to be produced in this size will be a whole other matter though.. You are limited with the cams you can use with a 2k's FF2 But not the FF3. the FF3 allows you to switch out the clamshells (aka D-Box) to accommodate other cams. Just unscrew it and screw in the new one. Plus the cost is a new 2k clamshell shipped to you is half of what a bone head D-box is running right now. I am waiting the hear back from my rep about this cam. 2k may already have a clamshell that is sized for the CX105.

TomOwen 0 #29 January 13, 2009 How do you guys think I'd get on with my CX7 box, a couple of hours, and some black nasty/padding? I take it this will take a 37mm lens? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSE 5 #31 January 13, 2009 T'is the same glass on this cam as the MC1 has. Decent stuff.. I think with some coated foam you could fit it in the box. I would not put "nasty" foam that degrades and granulates around it; foam granules are like sand in the zoom and other buttons. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ralph_W 0 #33 January 14, 2009 Here in Germany Sony has the camcorder on their website. So I droped them a mail about the availibility. Answer came back as follows: Unfortunately there is a delay with tihs camcorder, so that we can not tell you a date right now. Anybody got more info on this? How is the availibility in other countries? RalphSilence is golden. www.bt-ag.ch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mccordia 74 #34 January 14, 2009 In Holland its announced for shipping end of Feb2009, and available for pre-order. Though DSE hasnt chimed in yet here, he mentioned briefly he did jump the camera and it accepts the Hype-Eye. The only real debate between choosing this one over a CX11/12 etc seem to be lens/ccd-size vs no-OIS. Im ordering the CX105E this coming month.JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

DSE 5 #35 January 14, 2009 I'd say Germany jumped the gun on putting it on their website. April/May is the scheduled date, I'll put money that its late June. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mccordia 74 #46 February 4, 2009 From what I got, last week of March/first week of April is when its expected to be in stores (DSE might have more accurate date on that one). Cookie composites also mentioned already having a Dbox for this one in the works, and available as soon as it hits the market JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?
