Re: Classical music and copyright
Depends on what orchestra or group recorded it. You want Chicago or Cleveland? Gonna pay out the nose. If a lesser orchestra or group records it, could be very inexpensive. Chances are you can find...

Re: EX1 mixed with XF300 music video
They match pretty well out of the box. Since your under the same lights I don't think you will have any issues. Most of my cutting has been interviews from various places and even then, it was just a...

Re: AG-AC130 vs XF300

Re: Compact HD Camera w/ Big Punch!
And there is the real truth...the hmc40 and even my xf300 are not considered "pro" in many circles.
Auto iris or exposure has never worked as well as as I can operate it. My 300 has the same type...

Re: AG-AC130 vs XF300
The evf is useful if you're truly handheld. Gives you another point of contact to stabilize. Plus in the bright sun, the LCD is pretty useless unless you have a hood.
I've gotten used to shooting...

Re: AG-AC130 vs XF300
On paper the hpx250 is the competitor to the xf300. No matter how the 130 gets updated over the 150 (which I owned for two years) the codec is the weak point. I think the 130 will fall between the...

Re: XF105 vs XF300 for videojournalism
