Hi guys

i have a couple of HDR-FX1's which I love, I now need to buy 2 spare's but before I buy 2 of the same, is there another camera that will shoot in the same HD format and edit together seemlessly on the timeline?

I am after a quick response to this as I was on the verge of clicking buy for 2 FX1's when I thought of this question!

Thanks

Are you after two second hand cams,similar older models are the fx-7 and z1,new models include the fx1000 and z5/7 all would work with your cams in a reasonable way.

Id agree but the Z1 is actually better
The Fx7 only marginally more so

cheers guys, I couldnt find an FX7 for a good enough price (could only find it new for £1600) so I decided to buy a 2nd hand FX1 for £1200. Just gotta keep my eye out for another one now.

Thanks for your help

that new price was very good and at least you would have known the mileage but 400£ is 400£

yeah I guess so, but as a spare camera, it will not be used a huge amount so mileage is not as important.

If anyone has a PAL FX1 they're selling PM me as I need to get another one now.

Thanks to all for their advice
