I have a bogen tripod with a head for my still camera, but it doesn't work so well with my DVX100B. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good tripod head? Thanks! Christopher

Got my new 100b and I'm loving it. Have a question about the internal ND filters tho... When I put the switch to 1/8, the filter goes into effect but the monitor says "No ND". When I put the switch to 1/64, the filter goes into effect but the monitor says "ND 1/8". It's always a step off...

I'm getting ready to buy the 100B and I picked up Barry Green's book (with DVD) BEFORE making the purchase. The book, and this forum, is REALLY helping me refine my choice of accessories. I was going to order the book after I got the camera, but I'm glad I got it before hand; it's a big help...
