Have one and use it on a BatRack with a D-box from BoneHead. Works great but I dont use the esy function as it will only auto focus with it. Size and weight are very light and output is awesome. I am very happy with it

I did about 200 jumps with my Sony HC40 this past summer, all hand-mounted.
A salesman - at the Sony Store - assured me that it has the same "guts" as the 30% more expensive PC109.
... very happy with my HC40.

I think that you would be Much Happier with a Canon 10D

First is the body of the hc40 the same size as the hc20 and what lens do you use?

Why stop at the 10D? Go for the 20D!!!

External dimensions of Sony's HC20, HC30 and HC40 are almost identical. You cannot tell the difference at arm's length.
I use a low-profile, Diamond 0.2 wide-angle lens for hand-mounted video, though you will probably want their 0.5 lens for outside video.

thanks riggerrob
one more question is the lens ring 25mm?
I am pretty sure it is but hearing from someone who is using it would know better. thanks again

Filter Diameter: 25mm, right from Sony's web site
