This unit has been very well taken care of and works perfectly! It has only been used a couple of dozen times and that's why it must go. I have some extras to go with it like a shotgun mic, extra long battery (as well as standard), headphones, and wireless mic set. For extra I have a Compact Flash Direct to Edit (DTE) kit but that is fairly new and will add $1,000 to the current price. (it is a great addition though and avoids the "real time" uploading) I'm asking $1,800 for the camera and the extras shipped to continental US. I will sell the camera and the CF DTE for $2,500. Please feel free to call with any questions. Thank you. Ragon (307) 752-3614
