Mixing HD100 w/ HVX200
I need to decide on cameras for shooting a documentary which will be a mixture of interviews and run and gun footage. I already have a HD100 which I use mostly for interviews. I'll be needing a second camera which needs to be more discreet and easier to run around with than the HD100. The HVX200 is obviously smaller and lighter. My question is - how would it cut with the HD100? If I'm shooting interviews, I like to use two cameras if I have two people and cut between close-ups and wide shots. I know I can shoot 720p with the HVX200 so frame rates shouldn't be a problem. How hard is it to match the look of the two cameras?
Thanks. |
You should be able to match them up easily with a DSC chart and waveform/vectorscope. Setup the HVX200 the way you like it first, then match the HD100 to it. I did this with the DVX100 way back and they match up quite well.

Thanks Tim - that's what I needed to hear.

I've mixed footage between these two. It's not so bad in post if you don't have time to use a chart. You will have to soften the HD100 footage a bit, oversaturate the reds, and denoise the blues. Green tends to match up nicely, a little muted on both.
