Does the lens make a difference.
 

For the time being I am probably going to just shoot in SD but I was curious if the HVX200 in SD actually produces better picture than the DVX100B. It is worth it to step up the to the HVX200.

Thanks for your time,

Dave

David,

Same reply as your previous post; use the search engine and look at discussions already started on this very topic.

Alright, I have looked all over these forums and unless I'm not using the right keywords, I cannot seem to find anything comparing the quality of the lenses and determining whether or not the camera produces a better picture, even if it's just going to be used for SD.

Please inform,

Yes, the HVX200 has a much sharper image in SD 16:9 anamorphic than the DVX100a. And regarding the the b rev on the DVX100, I don't think it did anything regarding it's res loss in anamorphic 16:9. So shooting SD on the HVX200 is similar to the high res of the Canon XL2, if not sharper.
