A bit more info on JVC's cam

Oh I wasn't saying that their implementation was weird! I think it's weird that no one else thought to do it before!
 
the jvc imaging will be a tweaked hdx system(pana wont admit it, so dont ask jan)

have you seen

http://www.camcorderinfo.com/conten...t-3-CCD-Non-Tape-Digital-Media-Camcorder-.htm

that is all thanks to pana's cheap compact 3 ccd system (started with gs70 here in us)

truth is between the pana and this new jvc, its easy to read between the lines.matsushita is targeting xl2 users, its basicaly an hdx with removeable lens, just get the hdx and dont look at the jvc unless you need the lens but then you should just wait 4 the xl3 or buy an xl2 for a nice price

nice try matsushita ripping off the front of the hdx and adding new glass...

canon the underdog making bigger corporations jump through hoops to compete with them and appeal to consumers

jan you see how good i am? i dont work for any companies i just have a crazy amount of inteligence and commen sense get a me a job yo!!

Nope. Just because the lens is removable, it'll still be governed by the field of view restrictions imposed by its 1/3" chips. Any 1/3" chip camera, at equivalent focal length, will deliver identical depth of field, regardless of whether it's using a fixed lens, a removable lens, a pro lens, a 35mm still-camera lens (i.e., Canon XL2 using an EOS adapter)... if the focal length is the same, the depth of field is the same (assuming equivalent aperture and distance to subject, of course).

I thought that lens length was another factor in acheiving shallow DoF? Not necessarily at full telephoto?
 
Focal length is the determining factor, yes. Not overall focal length, but the currently-in-use focal length. So if the JVC provides a longer lens than other cameras, and you use the lens at those longer focal lengths (meaning there's space to back up and still get proper framing) then it would exhibit shallower DOF under those circumstances, whether at full telephoto or not. But if used at the same focal length, the DOF will be the same (for example, even though the XL2 is capable of about 110mm, if you use it at 10mm the DOF will be identical to a DVX at 10mm, or an FX1 at 10mm).
 
i said it 1 time or maybe more i'll say it again

jvc is trying to compete with canon xl series

removeable lenses 3ccd for $4000-$6000 from Japan Victor Company(JVC) ? all because canon the underdog chose to spend huge amounts of $ into r&d

canon making the big boys swettt(perspiration, nice big word)

JVC will be a Pana HDX with front ripped off and lens added a la Canon XL

Matsushita is trying, i'm sure it will be a nice cam,

Jan wassup with the job yo?
