dvx and hvx side by side pic

Hi
Sorry if I missed it. But did anyone by chance at NAB took a side by side picture of DVX and HVX...just to get a comparative size idea.

Cheers

I'm pretty sure I saw some posted over at DVXuser.com... I don't know if I'm supposed to send people away from here, but I'm pretty sure I saw them posted there somewhere... sorry I don't remember exactly where...

Damn. I hate the ergonomics of the DVX, looks like more of the same. At least it is a bit bigger.....fatter anyway. Pfft... I'll probably still buy it.

Could you tone down the enthusiasm a little, Dylan? ;)

I like the form factor, and I'm also glad it's a little bit bigger.

As per looks I feel it is more or less like Z1...in fatness and length....I mean

I feel it is beautiful....and I am sure even it is heavy it can be easily used on a steadycam as glidecam 4000

i thnk it would make a good big bro to the DVX..
a bit fatter, and uglier but i really like teh design and layout of the DVX..

im hopign its low light performance is on par though, but for me, by the time its released and by the time i can deliver HD-DVD, DVCPro50 will be my format of choice..

then once they sort out their dvcprohd usage with NLE's, id start to deliver the format to the client..

but until thn, as ewe in the real world of SD Delivery (at least for another couple of years), DVCPro50 is the best format to go with..
Were talking DigiBeta here folks...

i really like the idea of Pana takin on Sony at their "pro" game.. by offering these variable formats (sony with the HDV, DVCam and DV, and Pana with the DV, DVCPro and DVCProHD), theyre directly aiming to shoot the big S down.. personally i prefer dvcpro50 and even dvcpro25 over dvcam anyday...

thats my 2cents :)

Although the layout of the Z1 and DVX are similar, the feel and ergonomics of the Sony are far better. The feel of the DVX is what kept me from buying one. If they have improved it on the HVX, I will sleep with it (after I buy it).

Man, I don't know what's wrong with my head! Boy am I an idiot during show days... I had thought the original poster said HVX side by side with HD100... *that's* what probably isn't going to happen.

Of course DVX and HVX side by side is a logical thing, and as always the DVX User gang does it up right. Sorry for the confusion on my part. That's waht I get for being in a hurry!

Ok, I've looked at the pics about 10 times now. It's growing on me. I don't hate it anymore, even though it is related to a DVX100.

Chris, do you think you could score me some Canon stickers to put over the Panasonic badge on it?
