What's the best adapter for HV20? - Is anyone selling one?

Jose, that avi looks to be encoded with the Cineform codec, meaning I can't read it. Based on what you're reporting though I'd suggest contacting us during the day to get a CF1 sent out to you. We've run into this situation once before and it was a CF1Le vs CF1 issue on an HV20.

Hi Dennis,

I spoke to Hubert yesterday and I decided it was better to finish this project with this imaging element because I had two options and I wan't sure with either of them, so I'll mail you the CF1Le in a week and you send me the CF1.

Jose, no need to send the CF1Le back. We'll just send the CF1 via fedex express.

Last weekend shoot for music vid. Pics are from the set. Pics of the girl are from actual footage. Sigma and Brevis rocks!

We also use pimped Indian stedycam. We have change original camera plate from it with two manfrotto long sliding plates. This mod provide easy change from tripod to steady and back and this way is easyer to balance steadycam.

We also changed original Brevis 16mm inox setup too lighter 16mm alu rods and manfrotto clamps.

Last picture of a girl is Nikkor 28 f2,8 prime.

Dennis, nice to see user friendly company.

Igor, we have a blast doing what we're doing. There's always a great deal of encouragement and kind words from our customers to keep us motivated.

Posting frame grabs with beautiful women like that helps too :-)

Hi Dennis. Just saw this thread, and tried to check out your products by clicking on the link in your sig.

http://www.cinevate.com/

However, I just get some kind of "nobody home" error message. Is this just a temporary hiccup, or is there another link I can try?

I got that too last night when i tried to access the site. It was just a temporary hiccup because it worked this morning. don't know why.

Sorry about that guys. We upgraded our web presence last week to a high CPU cycle server and it looked like something wierd happened with DNS propagation today. I spoke with some tech types and all should be fine now. The change was intended to improve things in terms of performance and reliability as traffic and load on the Cinevate site resources increases.
