Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

I was hoping the engineers would change this focus behavior on the PXW-X70 compared with the AX100/CX900.

The more you zoom in on the AX100/CX900, the more turns of the...

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

$2,299 is a nice price point.
I believe this will be the least expensive camera with an SDI connection, right?

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

I was set on getting an XF205, now I'm not so sure. The PXW-X70 is appealing.

Although...
I wrote the AX100 off because the manual focus wasn't useful for me.

Re: Sony PXW-X70 announced: Pro XDCAM version of AX100

Based off the price of 280,000 Yen that was posted on some Japanese sites, we should get it for under $3K.

Re: XF 300 Model life

The XF200/205 has been said to share the same lens and sensor as the XA20/25 cams.
Highly doubtful that there will be an image improvement over the XF300/305's.

I had a go with the XF200 at NAB....

Re: Canon XF100 and XF300 Pricing Decreases

The "new" prices have come down, so naturally the used prices will come down as well.

The XF300 has gone from $6800 to $5999 late last year, and to $4999 early this year, and is currently $4695 at...

Re: Why isn't my HMC150 footage looking crisper?

In terms of "crispness"...

The HMC-150's sensors are rumored to have only 960x540 pixels, which are upressed to achieve 1920x1080.

The HMC-150 has never been known for it's sharpness.

In regards to your comparison,
it has been documented that the EX1 lens (therefore the PMW-200 as well) when at full telephoto, is at f/2.8, even though it still displays f/1.9. Also, the...
