Ag-456

I just found an AG-456 in mint condition in the back of an equipment closet. Anyone have any experience with these? How would you compare the picture quality to the AG-HPX370? Battle of the Panasonic shouldermounts!

Hmm Super VHS takes me back lol. Since it's mint condition it can go on eBay for up to $900; or keep it if you intentionally want Lo-Fi footage for a project or something.
Compare it to a 370? You'd need some pretty strong rose-colored glasses, I can tell you that much right there!

My wedding was taped on a brand-new AG456 back in '99...

When in '99? Mine was in June... maybe it was the same camera!

Because of the analog smearing? Would something like a Tiffen 49mm FL D do it?
