View Full Version : my shopping list
Dylan Couper March 13th, 2003, 01:01 AM I thought I would post a list of stuff I am currently looking for used, in case anyone is thinking of selling some stuff, or knows someone who is.
Large pro camera bag, like the PortaBrace C2C-3.
Large Pelican case, like the 1650
2 good video tripods
Beachtek XLR adapter, or maybe a MA100.
Probably more when I remember it....
Frank Granovski March 13th, 2003, 02:00 AM Regarding a Pelican case, you can buy similar cases at automotive joints that sell tools and stuff.
Stewart McDonald March 13th, 2003, 05:07 AM How much are those bags? I will be needing one for a GL2. What would be the best choice? I will want room for accessories.
Frank Granovski March 13th, 2003, 05:40 AM The Pelican cases are hard plastic cases with foam inside---which you cut to fit in the cam. There are a number of sizes. They are not expensive, but automotive supply stores sell similar cases for a lot less. (20 - 35% less? Something like that.)
David Mintzer March 13th, 2003, 07:28 AM Dylan, I have a used Studio 1 XLR adapter---many think its superior to the Beachtek----If you are interested then drop me a line at dam@ideogramprodctions.com
Dan Holly March 13th, 2003, 12:41 PM Dylan,
I'll send you an email tonight from home with photos/measurements, on a large bag I bought with my GL1.
It's just sitting around doing nothing but collecting dust.
Don't know if it will work for you, but I'll let you check it out
Dylan Couper March 14th, 2003, 02:32 AM Dan, looking forward to getting that info.
Dave, sent you an e-mail.
Going to auto parts store tomorrow to look for cases. I have a few Home Depot cases (the large ones on rollers), but they aren't quite the dimensions I'm looking for.
Stewert, were you asking the price of the Porta Brace bags, or the Pelican case? The answer is something like $250-$300us either way.
David Mintzer March 14th, 2003, 07:13 AM dylan---typo in my email address---its dam@ideogramproductions.com----sorry!
Dylan Couper March 14th, 2003, 12:26 PM Yep, I noticed. :)
E-mail re-sent!
Dylan Couper March 17th, 2003, 01:11 AM Dan, still waiting on the info on that bag!
David, will get back to you very shortly about the Studio 1
