To all members of the film and video community:

I am selling my complete Panasonic AJ-SDC915 NTSC video production
package. I am asking $12,500.00 but I will entertain offers that are
reasonable. This is one of the best-looking cameras that I have every
worked with (please visit http://www.two17films.com/ to see the
feature project I just completed) and it has been well cared for
throughout its life. With it's 2/3 inch chips it has a depth of field
similar to 35 mm film (giving it a true film look) and has low light
capability not seen in smaller DV cameras. The DVCPro 50 format has
4:2:2 color recording with image quality that rivals Digital Betacam.

I am including the matte box, 16X9 Portable Monitor, Azden wireless
microphone system, batteries and charger, Quick-grab Portabrace case,
as well as a hard shipping case. The camera has 740 operation hours,
and 540 Drum Running Hours – it has been kept very clean and only used
with recommended new tapes. This is a great, rugged camera that will
give you unbelievably beautiful pictures. (for pictures of the camera
and accessories, please go to

Please see below for details on the package.

Complete production package includes

1. Panasonic AJ-SDC915 Camera with high resolution 16X9 Viewfinder.
The AJ-SDC915 camera/recorder provides impressive digital performance
at a very reasonable price. At its heart is a DVCPRO50 VCR section
that assures the picture quality for professional production and
applications. The camera section is equipped with 520,000 pixel
IT-3CCDs, with wide aspect ratio compatibility that lets the operator
switch instantly between 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios. The AJ-SDC915
excels at nighttime shooting, too, with F13 @ 2000 Lux sensitivity,
+36 dB gain-up, and low smear. The VCR section features the advanced
DVCPRO50 format (50Mbps), which assures superior images by recording a
4:2:2 digital component signal at a low compression ratio of 3:3:1.
The unit can also record in the standard DVCPRO format (25Mbps) to
provide extended recording time. At 14.5 pounds, the AJ-SDC915
