I saw this camera in person two weeks ago. It looks brand new. Anyone looking for a practically new XH-A1, this is a great deal.

Card Carrying HMC150 Users SDHC Cards

A friend of mine just ordered an HMC150 yesterday. He called to tell me he is now "a card carrying HMC150 shooter". I guess it's true in more than one way, since it does not use tapes.

Hi Tim,

I have very limited experience with the JVC110. I do really like the B&W viewfinder with the colored peaking.

A big question is, how do you plan on using the camera?

Hi Roy,

You are right. If they ever did build the perfect camera, then it would cost so much that it would no longer be "the perfect camera".

The HMC150 is about as close to perfect as I have...

Hi Norman,

I made a post on the AVCCAM forum about matching the two cameras. I don't have an FX1000, so I am interested to see if the tweaks work.

Hi Tom,

No, but I have an HV20. I sometimes use it as a fourth camera at outdoor ceremonies or when the lighting is bright enough.

Matching the HMC150 to a Sony

I know some videographers are shooting with the HMC150 and a Sony FX1000 or Z5. I have a Scene File for the HMC150 that should make it look more like the Sony. Maybe it would be better to have a...

Hi Mac,

I'll sign on as a very satisfied HMC150 user. It's a great camera. I have been in business for 12 years and the HMC150 is the best camera I have ever used.

Hi Martin,

I'm not sure, but the only thing that I can think of is the digital zoom, which has the ratio of 2x 5x and 10x. I thought 2x may be okay, but it is not acceptable for my use. Perhaps if...

Hi Martin,

Yes, the servo zoom is slow. I mainly use manual zoom to zoom in and get focus or to reframe the shot. I don't know what you are currently shooting with, but the manual zoom on the Sony...

Hi Jon,

Perone is right about a Max of 24 and an average of 21 in the PH mode. This is where it gets really interesting. According to Sony, AVCHD at 9 mbps is roughly equal to HDV. That explains...

Hi Yang,

You are welcome. No it doesn't because my right hand is either in the strap of the camera so I zoom and start/stop or on the right arm with the zoom controller, so it keeps it balanced.
