Up for sale is my beloved HMC150 and accompanying Manfrotto tripod. Prices reflect the use of PayPal gift. Buyer will be responsible for any fees incurred by PayPal otherwise.

This has been a great kit for me and I've earned a lot of money using it. I upgraded to the HMC150 after having a DVX100b and loved it.

Kit Includes: Panasonic HMC150 camera, 2x Panasonic VW-VBG6 batteries, 1x Panasonic VW-VBG260 battery, 1x XLR patch cable, 1x HMC AC power adapter, 1x Panasonic VW-AD20 (charger) + cord, 1x RGB cable, 1x Pelican 1550 case

I bought this HMC150 kit from another DVXUser a little over a year ago with ~450 hours. It now has 566 hours. I was told that a huge majority of those came from shooting stage performances, meaning plopped on a tripod, hit record, stop, etc. Most of the hours I put on it were from shooting weddings. As you probably know, the number of hours on these cameras does not matter as much as the manner in which the camera was used and cared for. In this case, I'm confident this camera was fairly lightly used and extremely well cared for. It works flawlessly and has never presented me with a single issue in over 100 hours of use.

Lens: The lens looks really good. The guy that bought my DVX100b complained about a tiny speck on the lens that showed up as one pixel flare when the camera was pointed directly into a light, so I made sure to look at this lens very closely for anything that might be problematic. It is clean.

Screen: As you can see from the photos, there is something up with the screen. I bought it from our fellow DVXUser like this, and it is purely cosmetic. There is no issue with the screen besides this and it more or less becomes invisible when the camera is turned on, meaning you don't see it.

​
HMC150's are going for ~$2000 on eBay from what I see right now. Since mine comes with the Pelican 1550 ($125 B&H) and 2x VBG6 batteries ($135/ea B&H), but also considering the screen issue, number of hours, and lack of a microphone mount, my asking price for this kit is $2050. Shipping and insurance included. Pay with PayPal gift.

Manfrotto Tripod - No Longer for Sale​

Quick update - Manfrotto tripod is no longer for sale. Figured it's worth more to keep it than to sell and take a hit in price for minor imperfections.
