Title: sbm-1 to jb3?
Post by: save on February 26, 2004, 07:36:24 PM

is anybody running sbm-1 to jb3?  if so how are you doing this?  i've been thinking of ditching my d100 and picking up a jb3.  the quick transfers are very tempting  ;D

I think you're going to have to buy one on ebay or used from one of the forums. It's an actual sony product, I forget what the part number is but someone here will know it.

The part numbers are in the Archival Info forum.  Keep an eye out for these used, I don't think Sony makes 'em anymore.

hmmm, at worst case youd need a hosa converter box, i say go jb3, quick transfers are key 8)

the hosa converter + optical cable may actually be cheaper than a 7-pin>optical(or at least about the same price)

when i worked at am-dig we had the 7pinoptical cables in stock on occassion.  It's worth calling and seeing if they have one laying around or can possibly put you on a list in case one shows up...

I run SBM-1 > JB3, and untill yesterday i ran a convertor box.  i traded a 7 pin coax for a 7pin optical, and it works perfectly.  I also like the quick transfers on the JB3, it makes it a very convenient piece of gear.
