Accessory list for GS100

Ahhh, okay. Silver is fine. As long as underneath the silver coat you find solid titanium, like with my SLR. :-)

Sam, your 607 is even bigger (great price BTW!). The C-500 uses the smaller PH-358 fluid head, but is a black mamba. The next model C-600 uses a PH3-68 head and also a black mamba.

Frank, when you say base plate, do you mean the one the screws under the cam. Yes it is removable (quick release), just like the PH-368.

What are your comments on buying a 2 Way Mini DV Tape Rewinder?

Using this device should save wear & tear on the tape transport. Does it maintain proper alignment after rewind?

Has anyone used a rewinder? Any suggestions would be appreciated?

Thanks,

Joel

Joel, do a site search on this. There has been a lot of discusson. Some adamantly oppose, some use one religously. I use one for rewinding tapes for either re-use (I do re-use tapes I use for testing) or for storage.

Pat. Which model Hoodman are you referring to here? Have you tried it out? Thanks

Yesterday I found new source for Japanese replacement batteries for any video or still digital camera.

It will be of special interest of Allan or living in Japan users as the prices are half the original!!!

Check out the big GS100/70 battery offered in silver (or black):
