Canon HV20

If you can mess around with the presets like with the A1 it's going to be heaven. I guess asking for an XLR port would have been too much (this could have been the PDX10 of HD). I would have this as a backup cam for my A1 without a doubt.

I doubt it's going to have anything approaching the tweakability of the A1, but for cryin' out loud, it's a $1K 1080 24p minicam with a cine preset! I'm sure if the image is at least as clean as the HV10 that there will be a reasonable amount of CC latitude.

I can't wait to get my hands on one!
 
That's exactly what I was thinking. Shoot the flattest image you can and grade to all hell.

On top of that, I just got to see some M2 + HV10 footage and it looks pretty freaking good. HV20!
 
Unbelievable, I couldn't even believe what I was reading when it was posted on camcorderinfo.com. I'm really excited about this and the price point is remarkable. Hopefully this thing sends some serious performance shock waves and we see some new future developments. I'm definitely giving Canon some serious credit on this one. Everyday I get a little more antsy to just upgrade to HD....

now you can shoot rocking 1080P, ANYWHERE. stick it in your pocket, and go...!

Shoot, I'm going to delay a Disneyland trip with the fam 'til spring just for this baby. :)
 
Wow you are now officailly in the realm of Camera geekdom. Youre postponing Vacations to waitfor the release of a new camera... lol.
 
We'll have a future family portrait kinda like this one:

Are we gonna have another Street Price debate yet? Where everyone thought the A1 was gonna be 4k flat because of Canon's strict pricing rules, then it turned around and ended up being like 3600?

Then again, 1099 is already extra-cheap. Come ooooon lil' camera.

Are you serious? Isn't the HV10 filter thread diameter like 37mm? It must be a tough combo do handle. I'm very curious to watch that footage. Can you post the link? Or send me a pm with it so we won't jack the thread.

Anyone knows if the HV20 will have a focus control ring? I hate those touch panels.

Do you mean touch screen? If you do, I don't think it has one anyway. That's Sony. It has a joystick. That's Canon.
