Not sure if that still stands. Can't remember teh name of the people who repaired it but can explain where to find them. Come up Oliver Plunket Street with the PO on your left hand side. You will pass a Bagel shop on Left hand side also the book shop O Ruiseal, Mac Sweeney camera on your right. Keep going till you come to a discount shop (I think it is called the Euro shop) on the right hand side. There is a very narrow lane on the left hand side adn about half way down there is a sex shop (yes, I kid you not). Immediately opposite is a black door (reinforced). The first time I was outside that door I was sure that I had been given wrong directions. Ring the bell. A word of caution, the camera was never 'the same' since the CCD was replaced. During manufacture at the factory they do some last minute adjustments that are burned into EEPROM that mate the CCD ... with the optics. I think you loose these with the new CCD. Hi,

It's easy to fly and maintain. Base asking prices aren't too bad. Picked mine up yesterday! Cheers. I love the Cessna. It’s easy to fly and maintain. Base asking prices aren’t too bad.

Wow, what a learning opportunity for the semi-beginner. Not to mention, nobody ever questions my abilities when I show up at a photo shoot. Just owning it makes me confident I will have good video. I still have some experimenting to do. I want more practice with depth of field photography and lighting. I am waiting for my Bescor on camera light to arrive. Very exciting !
