Hi guys - I have a shoot this weekend using the HVX and the P+S adapter. I have never used the P+S. How easy is it to set-up on the HVX, and are there any good online tutorials or hints and tips on how to best use the P+S? Thanks so much! This was a late in the day decision to use it so any last minute pointers would be greatly appreciated...

Its easy, when you look at it, its all self explanitory, just make sure the ground glass is spinning when you shoot (The only button on the whole adapter, make sure the green light is on). Just attach it to the HVX carefully, and you should be fine.

What's the ISO on the HVX with the P+S on it? We rated the M2/HVX combo at 160.
BTW, I love you're "unnecessarily dangerous" line. That's hysterical. My most used on-set statement... "I can live with that."

not sure - but considering the loss of stop with the P+S - 160 sounds about right to me...Goddard - thank you very much for setting my mind at ease. "Unncecessarily dangerous" has unfortunately been a big part of my on set life....I can live with "I can live with that"....thanks guys!
