The VX1000 was game changer for skateboarding and you're right it is a pretty popular camera. I still own 2 versions of the VX1000. As other have stated though most filmers are moving to HD, myself included but, I have been using VX Cam for iOS which emulates the VX1000. So yes it is on the way out but in the meantime I will use the app for small films and will continue to film with the VX until I can no longer find any parts haha.

Thanks for the write up! I have been thinking of getting the older Black Magic camera. My only problem is purchasing a used camera and something going wrong it later on but might not be a bad investment.
