HVX200 specs?

[robotx21]

Will the HVX200 have a 72mm thread for the lens ficture? Can I use the same filters that I have for my dvx100 and just swap the cameras out if I need to.

The unofficial specs call for a 82mm threading. My question is: Would it be possible to have a *step-down* ring that would allow the use of our "legacy" 72mm optics?

If it is 82mm, I'm sure a stepdown would work for a telephoto extender, but not for a wide angle.

Step-down rings will likely cause vignetting at the wide angle end of the lens as well.
