Hello again,
Well, I spoke with the seller and he seems like a great guy, he has IMDB credits and just doesn't use it much anymore as he has moved on to 35mm.
He has lowered the price.
He sent my some impressive links to his work done with this camera and I have to admit, I was pretty impressed.
It doesn't come with a battery, as I guess he sold that off. But he has offered to let me run a test roll through the camera under his supervision.
I am torn.
I really want a pin-registered camera. I understand some more expensive cameras do not even have pin-registration.
And I need a quiet enough camera I can shoot talking head scenes with.
I don't really care about shooting with prime lenses, I'm not a cinematographer, the zoom lens will be more than enough for me. All examples of his work were done with the 12-120mm zoom.
I think I may try to get this camera.
What should I offer him?
Thanks again everybody :)
Rebecca
