Anyone here shoot with Panansonic AG-HVX200?

[Annie Crawley]

I own the full gates system with the 250 squid lights and super batteries. The system is absolutely amazing with high def footage in 720 and 1080i. I have been using the camera for more than a year and purchased the housing in April. I have more than thirty diving days with it. We just finished shooting a promotional DVD for Truth Aquatics here in California which will be ready for DEMA.

What would you like to know? I will do my best to answer your questions. I have been traveling for more than a month now and have not been on the board for awhile because of my production schedule but I am around for the next month.

Would be happy to help.

While Panasonic now has 16 gigabit cards, I read recently they are coming out with a 32 card as well. Certainly, the prices have dropped on all of them. The whole system has an incredible drool factor for me, just need the $
I'm surprised Mike that you haven't edited your footage for 2 years.

I have edited much thats for sure...ive touched a little bit of it. Now that Im shooting the P2 system, Ive definitely been editing a little bit more.

I sure do pakman, in fact i'm looking for a new set since I sold mine in order to buy the rig!

One wonders how you are going to pay for Red & a nice set of lenses with no kidneys left

We have a Seatool housing for the HVX200 that has been a popular rental for production crews in Miami and in the keys lately.

I have a nice healthy set of lungs I plan on selling for that beauty!

while you're at it, how about an eye. Figure you only need one to look thru the viewfinder... Just don't crash into coral walls due to the lack of depth perception...

ahaha, well i was thinking about a leg or an arm..but figured that with the size of the underwater rig I will probably need both legs to propel myself through the water and both arms to hold up such a camera system.

How is the Seatool for the Pana 200? Could you post a picture of it?

Thanks for the link...pretty impressive. I would be interested in how well the electronics of the Seatool housings hold up.
