I'm looking for more quantification on the actual value vs the cost delta of an
Orion and
other high-end rigs. It's easy to be a cheerleader and say the Orion is the
coolest thing
since sliced bread but I've noticed in the orion discussion, no one talks about
cost--
almost as though that doesn't matter.
Is the Orion worth thousands of dollars more than, say, a PRO2 or a MkV? That
is the
real question in my mind. I don't doubt that the Orion is good. Probably damn
good. But
to the $3300 base price when you add some filters to get those incredible
numbers
plus a microphone you have $4000+ invested in an Orion.
The PRO2 will be selling in the $2K range at Dayton next week.
Is one Orion worth two PRO2's in a contest?
