DVXuser.com exclusive hands on with the HVX200

..yeah, even if you can go direct to HDD id still shoot onto the P2 and then dump to HDD whenever possible.. its way more stabil of a workflow. plus you can only plug in the HDD when needed to dump good takes, and not have it sucking juice or tying you down the whole time. if they throw in a 4 or 8 GB card with the cam il be a happy camper. although it would be great to be able to go straight to HDD for the long record times when needed as well.
 
Thanks Barry and Jarred, it is the ABSOLUTELY great article about the ABSOLUTELY great camera EVER !!
 
Barry and Jarred,

One more question. Is that HVX model that you saw a working model? If not, when did Panny say they can give you some video samples?
 
I hope the final looks like the one in the pics. She is quite sexy!!! Thanks for the article guys. keep the info comin'
 
Price

Price

Am I missing something? What was the price? I read that it will be $49 more then the sony, how much is that, am I misunderstanding?
 
At the moment, you can get two thrown in with your camera for 9995.00

They camera and storage packages are separate, because p2 prices will be dropping rapidly.
 
Barry & Jarred: Thanks for all the hard work and the wealth of information. It really helps all of us who can't be there in-person.

Great Job!
 
Thank god its still a prototype cause the damn thing need a sholder mount of some sort something small and attatchable like the attachment for the fx1....the hell if i would want to hold anything of that size handheld for more then 20 minutes.....rediculous....i needs support .....a MUST HAVE
 
I hurt my hand a couple of months ago shooting hand held for hours with the DVX, still hurts, gotta be careful when you are getting old!
 
Jarred and Barry, great article ! Thanks to both of you guys.

Did I hear someone say the 2GB P2 card *WILL NOT* record HD (DVCPRO-HD)??

Why not?
Click to expand...
With such a high data rewriting rate going into those smaller P2 cards, the card would be more prone to sector loss errors.
 
So 4GB and up only for HD. Well...that's not so bad. My *game-plan* so far is to get the HVX, one 4GB card and a nice sized FW HD. If the prices hold out....I should be under 8K. And WELL under 10k for that matter.

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you for the wonderful article. I was supposed to be at NAB but couldn't go do to work, and this camera and the new Apple products were my main focus. You have really given me the look at the camera that I wanted (or at least as much as I can without a hands on).

I can't believe this camera. If the quality delivers what the features are promissing, I think HDV has just become a completely consumer format, and this camera has completely replaced it in the Pro and Prosumer market. What independent film won't want this camera for their production instead of any other video camera for less than 100,000?

WOW!
