Panasonic NV-MX8 DV Camera (Original Cost £1200) complete with Colour Bullet Camera System (Original Cost £120), plus free Panasonic NV-DS55B Camera. (original Cost £700) and many other extras. Well over £2000 worth of Equipment including suction mounts, microphones and cables for £550 or OFFERS
I am selling my Panasonic NV-MX8 camcorder (a BEST BUY camcorder) which has many features including both DV In and Out and Analogue In and Out. The camcorder has had about 30-40 hours worth of taping, 95% of which was via analoque in from the bullet camera.. It has been little used for editing or playback as I have a JVC FirewireVideo Player deck with DV and VHS tape decks which is what I use for most playback and editing. The camera is in very good condition and working fine. It is complete with all original items including charger, DC power lead, USB cable, Video Cables, 32MB MMC card, Head Cleaner tape, Remote Control and instruction manual. I am also including the following:
A Jessops SDX Stereo microphone which fits in the accessory choe on top of the camcorder.
A Colour Bullet camera complete with Culman Suction Mount, ball and socket tripod mount, battery pack, Microphone, 12 car power lead and mains power pack.
Three Woolworths portable power packs complete with chargers. These allow the bullet camera and microphone to be powered from this battery pack. It includes a standard 12V DC cigarette type socket and output for 3V, 6V, 9V and 12V.
Camera bag which an take the Panasonic NV-MX8 and one of the Woolworths battery packs along with the remote control and spare DV Tapes. I am also including a metal box I made up which hold the Camera and a Woolworth battery securely in a car.
I am also thowing in a Panasonic NV-DS55B which is a compact DV camcorder. This has been well used and even mounted on external suction mount. It appears to work fine but I have had a problem with playing back a tape from it in my JVC deck. It uses the same batteries as the NV-MX8 so the charger is handy for spares. Also inlcudes a 32MB MMC card.
In total I am including four 2800 mAh and two 800mAh batteries all of which can be charged on either camera’s battery charger. I am also including some brand new DV Tapes.

The MX8 wants for little in terms of features or performance. It's about as futureproof as cams come and delivers exceptional results. For videographers who want a top-performing camcorder and occasionally like to shoot high-quality stills for importing into a PC, the MX8 has everything they could need. And with two-way DV and analogue socketry, the possibilities for digital editing or even analogue-to-digital video conversion make this an extremely versatile and interesting piece of kit, worthy of serious consideration.
