Small Down-converter?

[Rich Schaefer]

Has anyone found a small down-converter box? I am doing car rigs this weekend. Soon, I will need it for steadicam, VTR guys....

Looking for small 12vdc to covert the 720p preview to ntsc composite.

Thanks Much!

Have you looked at AJA yet? Small, lighweight, 5-18VDC in can be powered from the camera. http://www.aja.com/html/products_converters_mc.html

Have seen these used in Hand held / Steadicam.

Yeah, the HD10MD3 looks like it would work. $1799 (B&H) is steep.

Any other ideas?

We looked and looked but the only other Co. That makes one is Evertz and that one's $1990. The Aja does do the job though, call Stuart at Promax, he should be able to get you a deal.

We have one on the Sales shelf right now that we could sell you for a deal. PM me for a price.
