Show Us Your X70 Rig!

Hey Guys!

Considering purchasing this camcorder and I would love to see how you guys have it rigged up for run and gun. External recorders, lights, mics, shoulder rigs etc....

Cheers,
Greg

Well, I would love to see some images of your X70 setups. Are you guys all just hand carrying the camera? No externals?

Re: Show Us Your X70 Rig!

My camera has a short shotgun off a Panasonic DVCPRO camera, and a Manfrotto plate.......looks pretty boring with the Comer 1800 LED on top. I personally think the X70 is an extraordinarily UGLY little camera.....especially the lens hood. I also think 2/3" lenses without extenders are extraordinarily ugly. :-)

Paul is the local expert on this cam, including best settings. Too bad, the camera is not a little more cosmetically friendly, but it is a great cam for what it does.

Hey Paul... Yeah I saw those. Not very many images on the net which was why I asked here. I did notice that the HD Warrior's shoulder pad is not even sitting on his shoulder. He needs a longer 15mm rod. LOL
