Panasonic kit praised for Everest role

Documentary filmmakers Andy Cockrum and Reid Nixon, after a nearly month-long
journey documenting a group of disabled trekkers to Everest, have sung the praises of the Panasonic equipment they used
"We compared 30fps, 24P and 24P Advanced modes, changing back and forth among the various shutter speeds. When reviewing the material we were firstly amazed at how good the 30fps footage looked and then when we saw the 24P footage, if I remember correctly, my jaw dropped," Cockrum said, "Mike Belile at Pro Tape warned us that when people rent this camera from him they often end up buying one, and he was right. We bought two!"
