Ive seen many clips from the HD100u, but I havn't seen a short, or a movie which was shot with it. Come to think of it, I saw one, but that was about it, out of all the owners theres gotta be more, anyone care to share?
 
Short shot on JVC GY-HD100u

Short shot on JVC GY-HD100u

Feel free to check out the link below to a short I shot on the HD100 about two months ago in NYC and Cambridge, NY. It was written by the Director for his reel and will most probably not be entered into any festivals.

No special treatment on the camera. Stock lens, 720p 24fps. Lighting: 1200w Arri HMI for key, 2-bank 2-foot kinos to extend the daylight into the room, and some additional Arri fresnels for highlights.

We transferred the 24p HDV footage to HDCAM with new timecode through a JVC HDV deck and Miranda bridge, then downconverted the new HDCAM master to DV for the offline. The folks at Miranda and JVC were terrific. They lent us the equipment to perform the transfer at no charge, so a big thanks goes out to them.

The linked video is a 320x240 SD Flash encoded file, so you won't exactly be able to see what the cameras full capabilities are, but from what the folks at the post-production house said (while they were watching the transfer on a big HD monitor), it is a shockingly good camera.

Let me know what you all think: http://www.digitalcapturegroup.com/mbk.html

Digitalcapturegroup- That link you provided is empty, it claims theres something uploading at this time and to check back in later, can't wait to see it.

Silverwolf- Great trailer, I know this camers beautiful, and its definatly something I'm still debating over, but what really had upset me over the past weeks was the fact that this camera wasn't getting much hype, I mean no one posted any clips to present.
 
You can search the imdb for films shot with the HD100 by clicking on this link.
http://imdb.com/SearchTechnical?CAM:JVC GY-HD

There may be more because this function requires someone adding the camera to the tech specs of the database entry.

I've also been maintaining a list of "finished projects" in a sticky thread on dvinfo.

I've shot a short film and a feature film with the camera, but trailers aren't posted on the internet yet. I'll let you know when they are.
 
Dashwood- Great post, found lots of goodies from those sites, thanks.

Digitalcourp- Great short, loved the color, great writing too. I don't even have an HD monitor and it looked great, I'm sure with an HD monitor it would look much better.

I just returned from Thailand where I shot 19 hours of video with the GY-HD100. If you want to see a sequence for my upcoming documentary, go to http://web.mac.com/pecahill/iWeb/Site/Elephant Haven.html
 
Of course its not in the trailer but we shot footage in Cancun... and did some 2nd unit with the camera that is really nice as well... matched really nice after we pumped up the footage to 1080p 23.98 Cine Alta format... shot 98% with the Cine Atla... the rest JVC and maybe a minute of the final film is DVX as well...

I'll post a link to the trailer... I think there is a shot inside the plane... and all the Hollywood sign footage even though speeded up in a Harry was shot with the JVC...
