I have a JVC camcorder that was one of the first made. I have bag and charger. It is a videomovueGT-C9. Are you interested in it?

[@barstoneTV1]

Would like to hear more about the live streaming capability... What platform does it stream to and how can someone watch it live? This may have been briefly covered when they were talking about the Amazon cloud, but I did not pick out any specifics... Anyone?

[@BandH]

The GYHM890 will have Zixi software installed in the camera which will allow the camera to stream to popular live streaming sites. You can do this over a wifi connection or using a 4G dongle from a call provider.

Very cool... This might just be THE killer camera at the right price point for many... Cautiously optimistic

Brian have you ever handled a professional shoulder mount video camera before? This camera is very light compared to other manufacturer models.

[@njrivetelite]

I have used one a bit smaller made by Canon
This camera is a beauty

I wish I had an extra $10,000. Nice review...=)

[@JustinBurks21]

How can I remove the lens from this camera?!?

[@BandH]

This camera offers a Canon 1/3" bayonet mount.
1. Loosen the mount ring.
2. Attach the zoom lens such that the pin matches the hole of the mounting area.
3. Tighten the mount ring.
4. Connect the cable connector.
5. Attach the lens cable to the clamp.
Note: To attach or detach the zoom lens, set the [POWER ON/OFF] switch on this unit to ?OFF?. Tighten the mount ring completely. If it is not fully tightened, the lens may drop or the back focus may be out of alignment.
Please contact us via e-mail if you have additional questions: [e-mail]>Mark

cmos equals rolling shutter. Yuck

Interesting streaming features, would much rather a more reputable institution like Panasonic have this.

No offense, Alan, but Mia is easier on the eyes.
