Hi all... I just got a slighly used AG-DVC200P camera for Christmas.

It has the AJ-VF5P viewfinder, the AJ-MH700P mic holder, and the AJ-MC700P mic kit.

It currently runs off of IDX NP-23 batteries. I believe these are clones of the Sony NP-1B batteries, but I'm not sure. It does come with an AntonBauer Gold Mount.

It currently uses a Fujinon S14x7.3 lens.


I was wondering if anyone had any hints/tips/suggestions on this camera. My video teacher says it's a great camera (he was the previous owner), but it takes some time to tweak all the color settings.

I'm also looking for a good tripod to go with this camera. Any suggestions?


Thanks for your time and effort!

Oops.... I'll post my tripod question in the correct forum. Sorry!

There's a couple of members here who own a DVC200. Tripod/head? A big one! I suggest the tripod forum. The guys there really know how to spend your money. :-))

Thanks Frank!
