Hi Bob, >> Conclusion? I still want an EVW-300, or, if I can figure out how to afford one, a UVW-100. << Well if you figure it out PLEASE let us all know how. Of course if you figure out how to get the UVW-100 you will also have to figure out how get a couple of 1600's to go with your 1800. Then you will need the YUV option for the VM and……hey that UVW-100 keeps geting more expensive every minute eh?? As far as the L-2, I have heard alot of good things about them. My only problem with them is like all Hi-8 cammeras ( EVW-300 not inclusive ) they are so small. For some that is an advantage, for me it is a nightmare. You see I am 6' 5" and about 275Lbs. and me and small cameras just don't go together very well. It is unfortunate since I love the little Sony VX3. I had a guy shoot some footege of a sprint car race for me with one and the quality was out of this world. I get one of them in my hands and it looks like I was shooting in a 8.4 earthquake :-))) A little side note on the L-2. I was talking to Marty Bryant ( for all lurkers Marty is a FAST user and Bob an I know him from the FAST forum ) and he was telling me that you need to be extra carefull when you use the camera strap. He said that it has a tendency to break off inside the camera housing, and it is a send it to the factory fix. Thanks for the post, Michael W. Towe Falcon Video Productions Sanee Ca.
