Infoseite // To all the XM-2 users: what useful accessories for the camcorder?



Frage von Clas_76:


Hello.
Recently, I have finally bought the Canon XM-2 and am now very excited of this camcorder. The first shots look promising and I would now like to upgrade next, to get as much out of the Camera and achieve optimal results.
So here's the call s.alle XM-2 users, what accessories they can recommend me. I think of as
- Battery
- Filtervorsätze (polarizing, etc.)
- Micro
And most importantly fluidgelagert: a professional tripod (?)!

My purpose is primarily nature photography (landscape, wildlife), continue to leave films (eg by the snowboarding) and concert recordings (of a friend's tape).

Oh yes, my budget is currently available at 1000-1200 ¬.

What would you recommend s.Optionen as above, but what else a lot of sense is synonymous (and did I mention).
True class would be if you could still make the same types of information (ie not just "Vinten Tripod" osae.)

I hope that's not too much to ask for a start :-)

It owes you a euphoric Newcammer>> Clas.

PS: editing software was with the package in there with (Prem. Pro 1.5).

To rauszuholen best results Please bang you only have a proper camera. Since you have more of it. It does not have much yet so much stuck in outdated technology. Sooner or later you regret das Moreover, most here Xm2 use as Zweitkamera.Da you will not get a lot of tips for accessories.

hello clas!
welcome to the slashcamforum!
Reply to überlfüssigen anyone lacking here ... ;)

I'm me, "then" synonymous increased the XM2, as the price to me for money as very good and seemed synonymous corresponding test results confirmed the like.
synonymous, of course, have a little bit geshoppt accessories, among them there is:
- A POL & UV filter (if only pays for the protection of the lens!)
- The thick of Canon Battery (BP945), with the little one is really ned far ...
- The CANON Wide Angle Converter (I find really super and it paid off completely! However gibts synonymous interesting alternative variants of Third-Party and hardcore a la Deathlens of Century Optics),
- Microphone Adapter MA-300 (which I'm not used to date ... unfortunately, a bad investment!)

terms & sttaiven yourself micros, I can not really recommend much.
Manfrotto offers interesting starter sets, for a la XM2 camcorder has good services should provide (in this case I need you really look at the forums-point ... and if you're at it, micros such synonymous times after ...; ))

But do not despair, you have ne SUPER Camera.

IMPORTANT used, always the same cassette, s.besten Panasonic.

I have found now the following:

1. There are two different types of lubricants for miniDV tape: wet and dry. Only Sony's use the wet, all the other dry lubricant.

2. You can mix all types of cartridge types, so long as they have the same Schmiermittelart use.

3. Because of item 2 should not be the Sony cassette with another mix.

4. It's because of the abrasion of wet and dry mixes and becomes sticky. This paste can be accomplished through a combination of heat (hair dryer, remove headlight) and cleaning cartridge.

5. + Cotton swab with rubbing alcohol and carefully clean the image head toward the tiny grooves can remove the rest of abrasion

6. Cleaning cartridge use regularly - approximately every 30 head hours.

7. The best way to avoid the Sony tapes and buy the top of s.andere brands - such as Panasonic. Even though the Sony's are cheaper.



I have a thick synonymous Battery fetched, but not of Canon,
but a No Name of EBAY, I have always considered it the whole day.

Add to that a charger for your car, synonymous with EBAY

Also, I have arranged a Windschutzfell me,

Antwort von Clas_76:

Erstmal Danke!
For Batteries I thought synonymous, a part NoName bid on ebay. Were ok here http://cgi.ebay.de/8000mAh-Power-Battery- Canon BP-941-BP-945-XL1 XM2-8000mAh_W0QQitemZ5864719684QQcategoryZ27764QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Bzgl. the DV tapes I had previously always TDK and never had a problem with it. I think as long as I stay with a band places, but would that be ok?

Bzgl. Tripod (what erstmal the most important purchase) would I have chosen the widely recommended Manfrotto 503/525B Kit (later the 523 remote control). A quick release is an extra accessories, I presume? If this tripod for the XM-2 ok or is it perhaps already too large?

For more tips accessories (filter, lens attachments'm .. so), I remain very grateful! ;-)

Clas.

The Manfrotto 503/525B kit is completely OK if you want to carry the part much (must) but you can probably synonymous to think about a lighter tripod.
Your application can assume that you are often times just want to take it. Therefore, it is certainly too heavy and unwieldy.

Hi Clas,

Whomever you once your camcorder with this Manfrotto tripod have led, you will not regret buying safe. I myself have the MA503/525B kit and it would always buy again.

You're right. I intend to actually part often synonymous 'somewhere' take (such as concerts, but may synonymous) in the holidays. On the one Page I want maximum comfort and clean pans of still images, the other would give me a nice "travel weight" very meet. Were it up with a solution, which would be synonymous in this price range?
