Anybody have any good Nuetral Density options...I cannot seem to find any anwhere yet?

you can use any ND filter you want with any of the filter adapters out there, I use the Lensmate adapter with a ND-Digi Pro fader from Lightcraft Workshop

Seems in full sun light you might run into a shutter problem... What are you guys doing.

Also when conforming to 24 fps does it look fine? I will use it for some slow motion but will mainly use it for 24fp...

works perfectly...shoot at 60P and get easy 2.5x slomo - here's two videos I shot on my RX100 one that uses 60-24P in parts of it

Going to new york next week and wanted to pick one of these up for backstage and smaller web clients... seems easier than lugging around the 7D with follow focus and the snap shots look pretty good aswell....

Thanks for any heads up... also anybody know wher to get a small hand grip for this to get steadier video when shooting...

I use this with a quick release plate to get the camera height a little higher...once you do that it works like peaches and cream - here's a picture of it with my NEX7 on it, the RX fits same way

Is the moire and aliasing any worse than a 7D or 5DMII???

I would say the Sony sensors on the RX100 and Nex cameras are similar in terms of moire and aliasing with the Canon sensors. Remember the line skipping on the Canon sensors causes moire...so it's a toss up. Basically you get great stabilized footage. You've read the EOSHD.com review of the RX100? just google it, pretty accurate review of video performance (they love so do I)

Thanks for any information or opinions!!!
