Five minute short shot with HVX200

The Ultimate Challenge from Kaku:
He has attached the Hvx200 on his bike, turning it in a "BMX200".
I'm waiting for the LAST ULTIMATE CHALLENGE:
He will install permanently Hvx200 is his head to avoid noise...LOL

I notice you used B. Raffi in your short.....I've directed him before.

This cam looks just like the DVX, except better.
 
Well, well...robweiner...world's premiere for the first ever HVX movie. In 48 hours?!... CONGRATS! Is it necessary to say something more?

Now, after the download and the reading of all these posts again, I can say: Houston we have a problem!

Great colors, latitude, cinematic look, indeed! The $10,000 best choice...but frankly WITH a big handicap that we already know enough (noise -- to the fresh ones if there is who).

How to solve this if we want to go for a 35mm film-out or even for a simple MPEG-2 DVD delivery?

Again & again, the same request:

<PS> With REAL footage for once and by now; not more charts or similar stuff, please!

Oh dear Emanuel you're come back! I must to go to sleep soon! Go here if you didn't yet see:http://homepage.mac.com/mrbarlowelton
New Canon Xl H1 footage (Sundance footage h264, girl of my dream included:)) and San Diego footage.

Cheers:)

Don't go starting HVX/XLH1 wars... hehe.

I love the footage, as well. But, the people must decide for themselves.

I think both cameras are going to end up being one hell of a deal. It's just all in what fits either person's budget/workflow.

Have at it.
 
Yup caro Danilo! Grazie!

Sono qui è ho gia visto quello che il nostro Master ha lasciato per noi...

And...love you for your help and care! I must send you another gift via e-mail soon! :)
Barry for president! But....hey he's already a sort of president here...LOL
So go away Bush! We want Barry Green!:)
LINK Per Presidente, sicuro!...

:thumbup: Mio voto! :thumbsup:

:kiss:

:laugh:
 
I've not still thank you for the homage signature! :)
When I see it "I'm brand agnostic as Emanuel" I think myself as cute-little robot that repeat into a loop "I'm brand agnostic as Emanuel!:)I'm brand agnostic as Emanuel!:)I'm brand agnostic as Emanuel!:)".

LoL! Just Cute I am! :embarasse
 
This noise at low light issue is nonsense. Everything in low-light is going to give you noise or grain. 500ASA film is awefully noisy. So, that's why we have lights to turn on... and also cameras with nightvision if you are in no light.. I'd say that bedroom stuff just looked flat and available light with little latitude.. but not terrible. Reality maybe!

And why does this Canon and no noise get brought up so much? Seems like that's the only point I have heard as an advantage.. and not really that.. just in deference to the Panny. Canon people seem to have a bit of a Napoleon complex over this whole camera war. I would say so... with muted and drab looking footage like that Sundance footage. Doesn't have what I'm looking for in a camera, but it keeps gettig brought up on these threads. However, I don't know anyone who has bought one.. or a dealer (out of the three that I know) who has sold one. I'm a canon video guy since XL1 first series days.. and doesn't see the excitment and interest that there was with that XL1. Just hard to justify something that shoots to mini DV.. with no variable framerates... a floating zoom lens.. and an aweful eyepiece. Good thing it's so heavy.. make a great fishing anchor. And at almost 4K more... a nice pricey one

Also, why is this going on... on this forum board. Reeks of brand jealously. Maybe it's also that the canon watchdog site and other canon forums are full of the sounds of crickets.

Not all...not all...

Sorry, I even figure out your point but it's not so black & white. Unfortunately or I must say :thumbsup: by fortune?... or :evil: maybe not so by fortune... :engel017:

Post modified.

I hope you have something worthy of EITHER camera, fella. Seriously.
 
wow...12 pages of people complaining about webcompressed footage?
WTF??
If your getting into HD, learn how to light.....regardless of camera. And don't jump over people who post footage in a form that you can easily view. Video compressed for web delievry sucks....keep that in mind.
 
You are all crazy...the wmv file I watched looked great!
Super clear, didn't notice any noise...

Maybe I need to view it on another monitor or something?

Well, considering that you have HVX native footage, I'd say that's good news?!...

Run & gun doc work...it's not the same than a feature set, right?

Or we are all crazy -- yup! Or you saw other file...

My last hope: DVCPRO-HD is not the best codec to web delivery but will it be OK to 35mm film-out purposes after a decent post-production work? What's your bet?

LAST last hope: noisy settings LINK
 
emanuel, me too believes that you are exaggerating the noise issue... I don't think the pana is noisy at all
 
You are definitely exaggerating the noise issue; the Panasonic is about equivalent in noise to the Canon and lower in noise than the JVC.
 
This is nuts! 12 pages... don't judge your purchase on this camera based on amateur looking footage.
 
For fun, I took the WM9 and made a nice 24p SD-DVD out of the film... even coming from the uber-compressed WM9 it made a very nice looking DVD (on the well lit shots, that is) with little noise (again, on the well exposed shots). All the slight off-focus shots are down-sampled into sharpness when viewed on the small screen, and even the strobing end credits seem less to exhibit less strobe.

I'd be very happy with DVD end product that can look like that when treated well.

Regards,

Jim Arthurs

Just imagine how well it would of done if not recompressed to wmv first.

Thanks Jim
