Sony NEX-FS100 and HXR-FMU128 128 GB Flash Memory $500 Rebate


Back when Sony first shipped the HXR-NX5U camcorder, they also offered a promotion on the HXR-FMU128 Flash Memory Unit, and now they are doing it again for the NEX-FS100.  Frankly, at the current retail price of $669.95 the HXR-FMU128 is not a very good deal; better to save the money and buy a Atomos Ninja or an AJA Ki Pro Mini, but at $169.95 it might be worth getting.
Note: the HXR-FMU128 doesn't improve the quality of your video recording - the camera only records AVCHD on the unit - it simply increases the length of recording time.

Beware that it is NOT possible to record 1080 60p to the Sony HXR-FMU128.
Only a SD Card can be used for 1080 60p!
