Reviews

 * Review from a magazine in 1973.
 * Many of the accessories that work with this camera also work with the ZC1000. These can typically had for under US$80 and for your money you'll get a really solid camera with a lot of features and a good lens comparable to a Nikon R8, Elmo 1012s-xl or a Canon 814 E. It's definitely worth a buy if you would like to experiment with single 8 but are unsure about shelling out the big bucks for a ZC1000
