Premium Members Stephen Murphy Posted June 2, 2007 Premium Members Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 Can anyone tell me what this camera is like weight wise? comparable to a Sony 750 or 900 or smaller alltogether? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Sydney Seeber Posted June 3, 2007 Premium Members Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Are you doing sports with this camera, with triax? It's a little lighter than a typical HDCAM, as it's not a camcorder, in fact, I remember it being REALLY light... I've used it doing local sports shooting in both SD and HD... I think it's got the same sensors as the Viper, but I'm not 100% on that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah ive been asked to work on a sports gig with one of these with triax and im worried it may be a little too light for my set up (nexus/3a arm). Same weight as a Digibeta 790 maybe? or lighter still:(? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Stephen, Weight specs : 4,3 kg(9,6 lbs) incl. 2" viewfinder and CompactHD adapter 5,0 kg(11 lbs) incl. 2 "viewfinder and TriaxHD adapter Maybe you can arrange a Wireless HD adapter.. the weight of that, don't know. So yes, for you setup maybe a bit to light.., but maybe the lens delivers the weight you need but in case of a Fuijnon lens for example.. it delivers some 2.0 kg (4,7 lbs).. Best, Erik in my case without the viewfinder+nice lens will even fit within the max lbs of the flyer :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinThwaites Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Hi Stephen Nice camera but the weight builds up with all the accessories that are usually fitted. Watch out for heavy power consumption. Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
