Hello

I LOVE my DVX camera but I am not getting many calls for my DVX.

I am going to get an HVX.

Aside from the camera what do i need to purchase?? P2 card reader?

I am just trying to figure out the best way to get HD footage to my clients.

Your thoughts and help - please!

THX!

This should help.

Right now if you buy from an authorized Panasonic dealer you'll get a free 16gb P2 card.

all you "need" is at least one p2 card and a computer with either/or/both a firewire or full size pcmcia port. beyond that its just a matter of personal workflow choices.

for practical reasons, i personally suggest 2 cards of at least 8 gig in size and a laptop. that way you can shoot to one card while the other is being transferred.
