It still records in 2:3 pulldown (60i). Bummer. Not as big a deal as you still have to transcode AVCHD.

After I wrote that, I thought instead of the Z1U get a Canon XH-A1. That might be the easier and best solution although it wouldn't help him if he has stacks of 60i footage he's already shot.

Ok, my advice won't be as helpful but the easiest I've found is to upgrade to the Sony Z1U from the FX1 for about $900 more. Shoot in Cineframe 25 with a shutter speed of 50, or shoot in 50i and...

If you already have a DVX100, then buying another one makes sense because their color, sharpness and everything else will match up nicely in edit. It really doesn't make sense to have a DVX100/FX1...

You can make prime lenses but you're still limited by the tiny sensor size; being that it is the number one reason why DOF is so deep.

Just finished a formal test and found a sharpness setting of 0 just way too blurry for my tastes. Even downsampled to 1280x720 looks blurry. I like how there is no black halos but the lack thereof...

I use a Polaris light meter. It goes from 3-8000 ISO and 0.5-90 f-stops. Has reflected and incident light readings and EV. Easy to use. Paid $50.

If you want "best", expect to spend around $550.

HV20 vs FX1

I saw some footage of the HV20, and quite frankly the image quality blows me away for a small form factor camcorder. How does it compare to the Sony FX1 (which I have)?

Hope this is the right...

I can't recall if older versions of FCP allowed custom frame rates, but I believe it may have. Unfortunately, none of my Macs are able to run OS9 so I can't test older FCP versions.
