Thinking of selling my Mini35. at DVinfo.net

New 15 months ago - low kms.

Nikon Mount and both Z1 and Canon kits. What do people think would be a good price for it?

Is it 400, will if work with XL H1 ?

Tough call, while I personally would be interested in a mini35 400 series for the canon, it's difficult as there's a new one on the horizon (supposedly) and red has finally been released which I think will eat into the profits of the mini 35. I would say a good starting point is around 6-8k U.S. and see if anyone is interested.

Especially with the competition hotting up in the "cheaper" end. I own a Letus Extreme and the footage out of it is astonishing.

I would love to do a side by side comparison but don't want to hire it and I don't think there is an ex1 mini35 mounting solution yet

Sorry been away.

Yes - it fits the XLH1. I'm in two minds about it - it is a useful tool, but I am not using it that much in my business, as we don't do a lot of short film work.

6-8k us sounds about right.
