When someone bids on something that is biddable and has buy it now, the buy it now disappears.

In my opinion, flip out screens are pointless. An extra 200 dollars just for a flip out screen isn't worth it. I actually like not looking at the screen, you kind of focus more on the rider and such.

^ Dude just save up the money for a babydeath, that lens is a waste of money. And that camera doesn't have a filter size, so there's no threads for the fisheye to screw into anyway. I listed several excellent options so you wouldn't be wasting any money. Use them haha. The cam caddie is the only good thing there.

I feel like kids aren't even reading the thread lol.
Ben, it depends on your computer. It may not even have a firewire port. If you have a laptop, you might have to get a PCMCIA card w/ a firewire port installed on it. If you have a newer mac, you need a 4-pin to 4-pin firewire cord. Older macs, and if you have a windows, chances are it's 4-pin to 6-pin.
The camera's always 4-pin.

Can somebody tell me if i should get an MK1 lens for my GL1, or an Opteka. I heard that the sunshade on the lens shows up and if you take it off it has waayyy to many sun beam things. :/ But I would only go up to 250 max on a lens

WHY DON'T YOU KIDS LOOK UP FIREWIRE BEFORE YOU BUY MINI DV CAMERAS.
What the ----- no it will not work Ben, get a pci card installed if you can or if you have an expresscard slot buy a FireWire expresscard.
Otherwise you bought a brick

Netjiot thread.
And no,
Awkward, overheats, expensive lenses, small sensor, terrible audio so you'll need an expensive mic, expensive handles, overall money pits for a setup that won't do any better than a vixia with an atr25 mic (which is also a handle) and an opteka baby.
Look down on the page, the Netjiot. Not enough to justify it's own thread. A thread for random questions and such, like what you just asked.
Ben, if you have a local computer store, go price out what it would be to get a firewire card installed if you buy a card there, and if you include your own card for them to install. Don't go to Best Buy or anything, they charge too much. Geek Squad sucks.
I personally installed mine myself, it's easy but you have to be at lest semi-good with computers and willing to take yours apart on your own. You can buy firewire cards on ebay for pretty cheap, I think mine was like $12 or $15 and it has three ports on it.

thanks for the help joe. and ive seen this cam in real life and it does have threads for lenses. i dont want to argue, im just saying.
and that camera you listed is a little too expensive. my parents are buying this as a christmas present and they dont really have a lot of money.
i wouldnt mind getting a canon either, if you know of one that is at the most $250
i gladly appreciate your help.
