Hi Trish.... Some camera stores have this lanc listed up to $75. They do sell a combo tripod/lanc too. However there a few camera dealers on ebay that have the lanc itself, factory sealed, listed from $28.95 to $65.00. just type in lanc in search. One store listed it as XH-A1 compatible. It shows up on amazon as $31.89

Uk?
Okay, so any ideas if they're available in the UK anywhere? B&H have 'em but the postage is $50!

I got one off ebay - seems to work okay. The zoom has a 'click' which is annoying and is picked up on the mike - there is no IAF. for the price I think it's fine.
I was actually wondering about mounting a cable on to the camera (XH-A1). remember the old shutter cable for a 35mm SLR? - if you could mount a screw attachment over the IAF button and attach a cable - you'd have a remote for the AIF. just a thought - I'm not game to try it. |

The click is not a problem as it'll be for on a jib. I'm interested as it's so cheap and has focus buttons - not for 'live' focussing, but once it's up on the jib it's nice to be able to tell the autofocus what I'm interested in if it's got it wrong.
I couldn't find it on ebay when I looked, but I'll have another trawl through - thanks for your help! |

Thanks! I realise now that it's because I was using ebay.co.uk not ebay.com - the UK site has nothing it seems.
Ta muchly. |

Erick,
Just to the left of the record button is a plastic flap that has the lanc connection behind it. I'm petty sure it's the top one from memory. Bryce

Life just got easier...
Thanks to this thread I ordered the Digital Concepts LANCS from Amazon on Monday and received it today. This is going to make shooting video a lot easier.
I tried it out and all of the controls work perfectly. I haven't tried the "photo" button yet, I normally don't use that function anyway. But for $29, this is probally the best bargain I have found in a long time. |

That's a bargain
Man if knew about these Lancs 2 months ago I could have saved $400. Crap!
