Has anyone tested this camera yet? Any footage posted anywhere yet?

I am curious to see what this camera can do with its smaller CCDs and it's lack of 24p or Cinegamma.

look for DVC 30 postings, it is the same camera, just larger.

Sorry, but that is one ugly camera.

Re: DVC60 is posted...

Please don't tell me those are all plastic parts. It looks like a fisher price camera.

That’s what I said when someone posted it a couple weeks ago. Looks like they took a DVC30, stripped it, stuck a DVX handle on it, then put it in the mounting of a DVC7. A Frankenstein’s monster of a cam.

Re: DVC60 is posted...

are the 3 ccds in the dvc60 smaller than the 100a

Re: DVC60 is posted...

the DVC60 has 1/4 inch CCDs, the DVX100a has 1/3 inch..so yes, the DVC60 has smaller CCDs

Re: DVC60 is posted...

DVC60 has 1/4" CCD's, but the specs for both DVC60 & DVX100A say exactly the same:
"Picture Elements: Total: 410,000 pixels Effective: 380,000 pixels (horizontal pixel shift system)"
I don't understand.

And by the way, it's not "plastic", it's carbon fiber - there's a big difference.

I also see that it has a much longer lens.

Re: DVC60 is posted...

The pixels in the DVC60/30 chips are smaller (and therefore aren't as sensitive to light).
