Re: New HPX3100 P2 camera due in October

I agree, Gary. Very few producers will pay the premium these days. Budgets are just under too much pressure and kit like the EX3/HPX300/XF305 still gets it done.

Well to update the HPX371 is now on the BBC approved HD camera list, now maybe the new technology will be used more to create interesting content at cost effective levels.

my mistake

the 3100 is a 2/3" chip camera.

i was focused on the codec not the chips.

mea culpa

Re: New HPX3100 P2 camera due in October

HPX250 should be OK for BBC approval as it is virtually the same camera and will give an alternative to the XF305.

It will also act as a perfect B camera to the 371 too.

Hi Rob

Just joking around.. yes I get confused with all these numbers..!! must be a whole department in the bowels of Sony and Pana who come up will this stuff.. The HDX900 and the Sony 900 caused much confusion for prod managers.. thinking in codex is probably a better idea ..
