pricing on full kit .... at DVinfo.net

Dean Harrington · September 2nd, 2006, 05:02 PM

In the FAQ:"Price & Availability
The SI-1920HDVR is priced below $20k and will be available for delivery in Q3 2006."
I assume you've got a price in mind for the camera with the seagate drives and battery power. Any idea what that would be?

Jason Rodriguez · September 2nd, 2006, 10:41 PM

We're working on final pricing, but it's still in the $20K ball-park range for the full camera body product that we were showing at NAB.

Dean Harrington · September 2nd, 2006, 11:29 PM

Can't wait to see what you've come up with!

Joe Carney · September 3rd, 2006, 02:23 PM

Will the full kit price include Lens? I thought that was posted in the past, just wondering if that is still the case.

Dean Harrington · September 3rd, 2006, 06:06 PM

two fujinon C mount lenses are to be included with the camera.

Also, if you use a seperate PC for editing then the one you capture wth, another 1499.00 for the Cineform raw codec (Prospect HD).

I tried to contact Silicon Imaging in two occasions (to the email they show on their website), and I got no response. It's sad because this looks like a good camera to buy. But, if I am going to send them my money, I would like some kind of customer care.

Thanks Jason for your fast response. I had tried to contact SI before, but it seems that I was going in the wrong direction. Jason gave me his and Steve's email and I hope we can do business in the near future.

Jason Rodriguez · September 9th, 2006, 06:45 PM

No Problem :)

Joe Carney · September 10th, 2006, 07:57 PM

Are they any problems with the delivery of the Altasens chip? Also, if it's alright to ask, which model are they using?

Thanks in advance

Carlos Osterling · September 10th, 2006, 11:59 PM

Will this camera be available this year? I know you don't want to set dates, but I need to make a decision... This seems like a great camera, but how long could it take? Thanks guys.

Jason Rodriguez · September 11th, 2006, 10:43 AM

Yes, definitely this calendar year.

Tyson Perkins · November 17th, 2006, 07:20 PM

Is this still going to be delivered in this caleder year?

Jason Rodriguez · November 18th, 2006, 02:36 AM

Still the plan for the Mini . . . although the full-body SI-2K has been scheduled for January release . . . so yes, the plan is to ship the Mini this calendar year.

Tyson Perkins · November 18th, 2006, 03:19 AM

Im still tossing up between the mini with a good lense or the DVR with stock lense - could any of you guys convince which one would be a better go for an indie filmaker like myself, who is editing on a mac?
