My boyfriend has the DVX. As you all know the holidays are right around the corner. I need to start buying now, because all he wants are accessories for his baby. Any suggestions..besides the tripod, microphone, and extra batteriers, he has plenty of that. Our limit is about $800 and i'd like to get him more than one gift....please help......

God, can I just say, what a damn good girlfriend you must be! :)

Has he got Barry Green's book and DVD?

Maybe the film November when it comes out on DVD - that was shot on a DVX.
 
he uses it for anything. weddings, movies..it's his life. could you give me some ideas of accessories that any of you have.
 
You *are* a nice girlfriend. Ok, here's my holiday gift list for your DVX guy.

DVRig Pro -- $580 -- This is one of the best handheld camera supports you can buy for the DVX. You can hold the camera steady for hours with this rig.

Sennheiser wireless mic kit - $600 -- I don't care what kind of mics he already has, he'll flip over this wicked small wireless lavalier. And you can always use another wireless mic.

Kino-Flo Diva 200 Light --$530 + $60 for bulbs -- Nothing says you care like a cool running Kino Flo light.

Get him the anamorphic adapter, a Pelican 1550 case, and tell him about DVXuser.com!

That DvRig Pro camera stabilizer sounds nice too.
 
Yeah, tell him that you've bought him a lifetime subscription to DVXuser.com, and set up an account for free! :evil:
 
I'd buy him a Formatt Mattebox And some filters, 350 for the mattebox, approx. 150 per filter that would mean 3 filters. A schneider truepol, a ND Grad 0.9 soft edge and a plain ND .06 would be a good start...
 
dang, what a lucky guy to have a girlfriend that wants to buy him camera gear for christmas! Here's some of the things I would be stoked to recieve for christmas....

Century fisheye, or red eye wide angle adapter (www.vfgadgets.com for the red eye, $440)
A jog/shuttle controller, or an x-keys edit controller (I think sirius doggy has one of these)
A color production monitor (jvc makes one that is under 600 bucks)
A sennheiser ME66/k6
maybe some various smaller goodies like nice headphones, a slate, a bunch of tape stock, etc etc....
A cinebags production bag
a gift certificate to EVS? (do you have such a thing Rush?)
A set of Rowe cine dolly wheels (support your local film maker)
 
Not knowing exactly what he has, it is hard to make the right suggestions.

But mine are: Glidecam 4000 (fun), monopod (Bogen 842B), 5-in-1 popup reflectors (cheap on ebay), chromakey screen (this will be FUN!!), Kata Raincoat,
