Thanks Mark! Appreciate it... Couple of questions:
Where did you get the CA-100, Mark? Japan? What did you pay for it? I want one! We do some dock diving as well. I checked out a cheap xacti at Radio shack today and really noticed that choppy motion, but I don't know if I can get past it for less than $500. I also would like to have line/mic-in, which puts me at the hd2000 - $599 for iframe. Seriously interested in the CA 100 though... does it have line/mic in audio? Anybody have any experience with iframe? What about the fh1a? Anyone have experience with that?
