The benefits to the pro battery that I can see is that with the 110 the viewfinder and the screen can both run at the same time. That’s the only feature I could find that needed the pro battery. We will probably end up with the IDX system since JVC had a deal in March that you got a free one if you bought a cam by the end of March. It rushed our purchase but for an $800 value it was worth it. I do believe that is the cheapest option; the Anton Bauer(?) is just over $1k I believe.
My question is how long the IDX battery lasts compared to the prosumer versions that are around 45 minutes. Anyone know?
