Which of these cameras is the best camera for slow motion? (of the cameras in this forum)

any camera that offer a 60p mode

any camera that offer a 60p mode

Right now that means ONLY the Pani HVX. :-(

I sure wish another company would release a 60P camera.

Does not the JVC HD250 qualify as a 60p camcorder?

No that is incorrect. The 480p60 mode of the HD1/10 is 16:9 HDV. The HD100/110 also has a 480p60 modes. All HDV modes of of all HDV cams are 16:9.

The JVC HD200/250 series cams offer a 720p60 mode.

the sony v1u has a mode that does a quick burst of 240 fields per second, into memory then records it to tape. the settengs for this are 3 6 and 12 seconds.

i think the fx1 has this also

here is what it looks like

The HC7 also has it for 3 seconds only. You set it, then it will record the 3 seconds before or after you press the record button. Useful for staged, short stuff, but not anything in most normal shooting. Now the RED 1 does 120p in 2k IIRC.... ;)
