Panny consumer cams & batts

[Warrior8445]

Hi,
Quick ?, which Panasonic consumer level camcorders use the same battery and power supply as the DVX-100?
Thanks,
Rich

Some of the batteries might be interchangeable--the CGP-D28A/1B seems to be common between the DVX and the new HDC-SD1 consumer cam, for example, but the big DVX battery, the CGA-D54SE/1B, isn't. (I know from personal experience that the CGA-D54 doesn't even fit some of the other Proline cams, specifically the DVC7.) Neither of those seems to fit the new PV-GS320, so I'm guessing it's going to be pretty hit-and-miss.

I'm guessing the power supplies on the consumer cams are going to be completely different...

Captain Pierce,
Thanks for the reply, I was hoping to get a camera for digitizing in/out and wanted to avoid a whole new battery system.

Where in Iowa?
