OT:- Brooklyn 0 : Manhatten 1

For those of you I horrified when asking about members experiences with the Brooklyn grey market stores, take comfort. I listened to you, was mortally terrified by your stories, and ordered my FX1 system from B&H.

Chicken ... I gave my advice hoping you'd take the plunge and prove us wrong :-)

Mike,

Do you feel comfortable disclosing exactly what was included in your purchase and how much it cost?

When I searched B&H's website for "FX" I found 3 different deals with very different price tags.

Best regards,

Lee

which Olmsted and Vaux consider to be their masterpiece, not Central Park which they also designed.

The FX1's with hight prices at B&H come with other stuf in packages, like the Canopus software.

I ordered:
The FX1 camera, plus the Sony .8 wide-angel lense, the filter package that includes the UV and the circular polarizer, an extra long-life battery pack, five of the 63 min HD tapes, the ElectroVoice 635A ENG stick mic, a 25' XLR cabel and the Shure A96F impedance matching transformer. With 2 day air delivery to Califonia it was $4241,19.

PS
For Rich: I did talk to Royal and as we all knew they would not sell it unless I paid an extra $600 for a $79 Mack warranty and they only sell fake accessories, not the real thing so I blew them off.
