I ended up going with an FX1, the rodevideo mic, and I also bought a lav mic so I can shoot both of the docs I want to this summer. I was able to get my hands on the camera through a realitive who does docs for a living. He and his production company are VERY happy with the FX1's. My camera is being delivered on Monday - I ordered it from B&H for $3200. It shipped really quickly too and I think B&H had the best price out there for this camera. Good luck! Amanda |
Yes this is correct

Thanks for the focus and LCD tips and info Boyd. This is good to know. Focusing manually in HD, one must have some recourse to make sure. Great Amanda! thanks for the heads up. Let us know how the shooting goes. I will do the same. The fx1 is what I'm leaning towards but my mind's not completely made up. Amazing that B and H have this back in. I spoke to them this past Wednesday and they had a 2-4 week wait going. EVS was out as were some of the other on-line retailers. i had even placed an order for one at another place but found out subsequently that they were out. Went back to research about the dvx100. Anyway, cheers on your find and best of luck on your project. |

Glad the recommendation worked out well! |
May go for 2
Thanks Spot,
I might get a second light. If you have to carry just a couple of lights, I think the Litepanels should make a great travel kit. Jack |
This post has me thinking more about getting the Z1. Spot you should be a salesman!
What is your take by the way on the talk that HDV will be replaced by AVDHD? Do you see that happening? Or is that going to be in handy cams at wal-mart? |

I've not heard a whiff of AVDHD being in anything but very cheap consumer ware. Can't imagine it being anywhere else either. HDV, or a variant, is here to stay with us. XDCAM HD for instance, is nothing more than HDV on steroids. |
