Now, im going to try and organise a dvx100 test next week. Anyway, let me know what you think of the tests with the XM2 footage,

Thanks,
Wayne.

Very nice Wayne, this looks promising! A little bit difficult to get a full impression from handheld footage and poor lighting Really looking forward to the DVX100 test. Keep up the good work Wayne.

Just a question about the construction,- looking at the pictures and I wonder if the rods will go all the way through the adapter so one could attach a mattebox or a sunscreen in front of the lens??

[Wayne Kinney]

Very good question.

The baseplate that Quinn got was actually to low for his XM2, meaning he had to pull the rods back to get the unit low enough. I have sent quinn a modified baseplate for the XM2 that places the camera slighly higher. Its fine on the fx-1/dvx100 though.

Thanks,
Wayne.

Looks good Wayne. Hopefully we can get DVX examples soon, maybe even a few seconds of raw dv footage. How's the FX1 footage coming along?

Hi,
Yes im SO eager to organise the DVX test now. The FX-1 test went ahead, but we came up against a few problems with the baseplase that needed modifying, so didn't record anything useful. We held the cam breifly up against the SG35 and the images were great.

Thanks,
Wayne.
