[edit] Reviews
[edit] by Jörg Polzfuß
This is a very nice high-end camera and offers all you'll ever need. The only drawbacks are the weight (try to carry it around for 2-3 hours!), the extra batteries needed for 72fps and the only semi-automatic exposure - I tend to forget to set the f-stop correctly since all my other cameras do have auto-exposure.
In other words: This camera is the best you'll get for Single8 when you're an experienced cameraman and when you don't want to take "snap-shots". But you'll most likely get yourself another (smaller) Single8-camera with auto-exposure when you plan to shoot your next vacation on Single8.
