I got this Panasonic PV GS150 for way under $600 at Best Buy last year. I really like it. 3 CCD's!

sounds good, do you know where i can buy one?

I shot my first film, INVITATION, with a Panasonic PV-GS65 (3-CCD) which I purchased from eBay for about $400. I've been pretty pleased with it - though it's not a DVX, by any stretch of the imagination.

The one I was looking at, at the time, was the GS400, but it was around $1k and I didn't have it. Not sure what it goes for now.

Peace,
Larry

the main thing is that i dont want to get it off ebay, and I need it within a week, preferably from a brick and morter place.
