----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Check a few recent issues of The American Cinematographer or The Independent. Look for a small ad, perhaps a classified. I've seen the camera advertised for approx. $ 400.00 I've seen the camera: a few of my students have purchased them. Although the camera itself works well, in my opinion, the lens is of inferior quality. (Color correction is inadequate; anti flare coating is inadequate). Renato Tonelli
