Yes I have heard a the + and - in the Dv + HDV debate

But would i be mad to trade the 170 and buy a FX1 (would prefer the Z1 but to costly at the moment) I do Weddings and promotion work with the 170 but thinking long term having the option of true 16:9 and the HDV format is very atractive? or would i be better keeping the 170.

Nobody has asked me for 16:9 yet or HDV but I have a gut feeling that its just around the corner, but am I to early will these 1st genaration HDV cams be redundant in the next few years as new Kids hit the block.

Ian, rather than start yet another thread on this same topic, why not join in one of the many existing ones?
