murph is right!!
 

first things first.... murph is right, dont give up! we all have are tough times with this. you have many great resources these days (like this site for one) ask for help/opinions...you'll get plenty! maybe you'll find the right person to collaborate with that has strengths where you have weaknesses. maybe life will bring changes to your life that will allow you to make a great film! (hope so!) you never know where this life will take you! (i just got back in after ten years way out of it and it feels great! it was a huge piece missing from my life) anyway, i encourage you to try again and again until you do get it right! (good luck)

secondly, if that didnt charge you up enough to jump back in,.... do you have a tripod for sale?

ps. your links arent working for some reason....

Anyone willing to loan out?
 

Hey guys, I'm preparing to shoot a short this July. I'm trying to find a mini-DV camera which I can borrow, I'm not very picky, but perhaps Canon or Panasonic a full package with lenses as well. I am planning to buy a miniDV camera (off this very board), and rent another one to attempt to shoot with 2 cameras. Sort of working my way up as far as experience goes, I'm tired of doing 1-camera shoots.

I'm pulling this number out of my hat, but perhaps $200-300 for a couple weeks? Open to negotiation of course. I realize I only have 2 posts on this website, but I'm a verified pay pal user, I'd pay you first, can give out all my information (perhaps you can put up an e-bay auction, and I'll "buy it now" with insurance so you can get some sort of guarantee).

Anyway, I'm very good with equipment, this is also mainly an interior shoot. Anyone? If no one is willing, are there any online stores which rent out equipment?

Andres you're not going to get any responses unless you tell people where you are. People are not going to trust someone who doesn't even give their location.

why not buy and return? If you're only shooting for 2 weeks that should work... go to best buy.

Whoops, I am located in Boston Massachusetts.

You think it would work to buy and return? It's not a bad idea actually, essentially a free cost.

Guys, we don't approve of cheating on DVI. It isn't fair to the seller and since it raises prices for all of us, it isn't fair to anyone.

Furthermore it's just plain dishonest.

Andres,
Indeed, the buy/use/return is really not a good idea at all.

If you can't afford to buy the gear, rent it. I'm sure Boston has several good rental shops. Good places offer more than just gear. They can also offer some good advice on what you'll need and, sometimes, how to use it.

Which leads me to one last matter. It sounds like you're also going to have to allow yourself time to learn to effectively use whatever camera you get.

A quick search returned a few rental avenues.

Somehow, I knew it would be a great pleasure dealing with the warden here. The transaction was perfect in every way.

Thanks so much, Ken, for everything! I've been waiting for something like this for use in an upcoming project--the timing was just right.

I am delighted to have the mic employed productively, Lorinda. It looked so forlorn just sitting on my desk.

Well almost the first post from Greenville SC... :)
