Sony Z7 / S270 various topics
Just awhile ago at GV Expo (sure wish I could have attended this year), my friend Anthony Burokas got his hands on the brand new HVR-S270u. See his blog entry at:

Z7 Compatability with Fujinon 13x4.5 2/3" lens
Hey guys,
I'm wondering how this camera would work optically with the Fuji lens. I read the brochure and see that an adaptor can be purchased, but am wondering if a 2/3" to 1/3" adaptor would result in a magnification factor. Thanks! Peter |

Lens Question for the HVR-Z7 / HVR-S270
I do nature documentary shooting and I am heavily invested in Nikon and Canon SLR glass.
Will this new system work with these lenses? If so what mount adapters will be needed or forth coming by Sony. If this is true, this system will be just the ticket with cold weather and rain forest moister Many Thanks Tom |

Intercutting with other DVCAM footage
My sense is that this question won't be answered until the cameras are actually released, but I'm really curious to see how Z&/Z270 footage will look when intercut with footage from a DSR-400/450. I really like the idea that this cam can do both SD/HD and that you can effectively shoot to CF media.
I do corporate event work and this would save a lot of time in terms of getting footage into my NLE for editing as well as having an archival copy on tape. The bother would come if the footage really stood out from the DSR-450's that are routinely used given their 2/3" chips and better glass. Hopefully, this thread will provide a spot for early adopters/reviewers to provide perspective on this. |

recording to card ?
How many cards does the recording unit hold at one time? 1 or 2 ? I know with the ex1 you can switch cards in the middle of recording because it's still going to one. Will the z7 work the same way or do I have to stop recording to switch out cards?
THanks! |

Custom Settings PP1
What settings are all you guys using for your custom presets?
I am hoping to learn more about this - we have had a FX1 for a long time, but I have never used the settings. I am going to be using it for some weddings, and then pair it with the Fx1 for now, and an EX1 that I am ordering today. Any suggestions? Plus - what are the best settings to minimize the grain. Thanks for any help. George |

Bug? Expanded Focus doesn't work in CF modes!
I just figured out that the expanded focus function only works in
tape mode. It doesn't work in the mode where you are recording to CF and tape simultaneously, relay mode or CF only mode. Surely this is a bug that needs to be fixed! |
