Woo Hoo

Just got my new Xl2 and goodies from B&H today. I can't wait to actually get out there and use it. I also got the Bogen 3181/516 tripod combo and that is a pretty nice tripod compared to the ones they throw in with packages. I know it's not really a "pro" tripod but is really nice.

Also got the Sennheiser G2 combo kit and the MD46 handheld mic. I like that the receiver fits right on the attachment adapter that screws onto the back of the camera, which allows me to be able to use a light at the same time. For the light I went with the Smith Victor 950 after reading some posts on here. Eventually I want to get the Anton Bauer battery setup and a mini fill but this will definitely do for now.

Just wanted to share in my excitement and thank the great people of this forum for putting some really good info out there...

Congratulations Jim on your new XL-2. It is going to reward you with some beautiful imagery. Take the time to read through the manual and come back for any additional questions. That's what we're here for!

Good luck,
