Los Angeles Wilshire Boulevard

So I have just a few hours to find a Camcorder Store that stocks JVC equipment. Could any of you kind Los Angeles folks suggest a store near to 3515 Wilshire Boulevard where I can buy the mic. I would suggest Fry's Electronics: they have a website at: http://www.outpost.com/ and a toll-free number, 1-877-OUTPOST, that will guide you to the nearest store to the Wilshire location. A HUGE electronics superstore, with many outlets in the LA area. Many thanks to Azzure and PTTravel for their helpful advice. There's nothing easy. The more I look up the net, the more I learn and the more I realize I am chasing rainbows. We are from Ireland. We are just taking a tour of California with Cosmos. My JVC Camcorder is a GR-DVP9EK (probably European PAL). The USA equivalent is GR-DVP9US (probably NTSC). The hot shoe mic is MZV3U which does not appear to be for sale in Europe. I think that the sound part of the camcorder should be compatible with the zoom mic.Unfortunately none of the stores suggested have the mic on their website. I think I will phone around and thanks to all you warm hearted people for all your help, Joe You can get it in the UK from QED but it is expensive at £121.57. See http://www.qed-uk.com/?i=&vp=6&bg=10...&bi=0&ird=1405 The US Amazon website shows it as out of stock but it will cost US $130 to a US Customer. They won't ship it outside the USA. Alternatively, you can get one direct from JVC UK for £145 including postage. See http://www.jvc.co.uk/product.php?id=MZ-V3U&catid=100022 Presumably this includes shipping to Ireland. I can't find it on the JVC Ireland site. John John, its almost worth my while flying to LA to buy the mic at those UK twice the prices. Its good news for me as it looks almost 100% that the mic is compatible with the European model, Joe |
