Hi all, does anyone know the most important differences between the dvx100 and his "little brother" the ag-dvc30? (besides the price) Thanks!
 
looked it up ag-dvc30 (Pal version) got: "Switchable camera frame rate of 25fps/50i". is the same as 24p NTSC on the dvx100?
 
It's not true progressive scan. It's a simulated "film look" so you'll lose resolution when you use that mode. Another drawback to the DVC30 is that it has 1/4" chips. However, it's supposed to be a great little camera.
 
The DVC30 has better zoom. 16X optical. I find though that the OIS has a hard time keeping full telephoto still.

You don't get built-in XLR MIC jacks. You need an option MIC pack that's about $229, AG-MYA30. I love the camera though. If you didn't care about 24p, it's completely usable.

And you will not get all the manual controls and settings that the DVX has to offer.
 
so the film look mode on the dvc30 is not good enough to use for let's say a experimental short or documentary? how much resolution will I lose using this mode and is that still acceptable to screen on a tv/beamer/small cinema?
