Basic Letus35?

[wes]

Would it be bad to use a basic Letus35 on a HDV camera?

if you see on the forum, lots of people seem to use the letus on hdv cameras like the xha1 and the hvx200 (ok so that's not technically hdv). i think most people tend to use the flip version though.

i'm also thinking about getting the basic letus with a xha1. could anyone tell me if that's a bad idea or not? how's the quality?

Won't work as you won't be able to fully zoom in onto the ground glass. You'll need a spacer if anything.

I've tried on my A1. The quality is fine though.

you mean i'll need a spacer for the a1, or the hvx? and how long is your spacer you used?
