I'm looking for up to 3 Sony A1Us and up to 12 Sony Handicams (CX7, CX12, CX500V, or CX550V.). Also willing to take broken cameras, as long as they're fixable by Sony.

Hi Andrew,
l have a broken but usable A1U. The LCD doesn’t work, it won’t display at all but the touchscreen still works you flip it 180 degrees and fold it back into the body. There are other little problems but that’s the big one. l haven’t send it to Sony to get an estimate. Hours are:
Operation: 137x10h
Drum roll: 96x10h
Tape run: 78 x 10h
Threading: 239 x10
l mainly use my 5D2 now so I only occasionally use my A1U as a deck and studio cam (connected to monitor). Out of curiosity, what do you need so many for? There two more A1U where I work but those belong to the company. I'll ask if they're interested in selling.

For the A1Us we basically need 2, the third is a back-up. And for the handycams, they're mostly going to be used as props. How much do you want for your A1U?
