HDV Feature... a little OT

[Sproketz]

Apologies for going a little off topic. And apologies also if this has already shown up elsewhere here.

I was on another user group site, this on for HDV cinematography. Site is agnostic to the camera maker, just has technical info on using HDV.

They had a link to trailers for an indie feature shot on the Sony Z1U. It looks really terrific. I only brought this up here hoping that the HVX, with at least the same picture quality and improved recording format will look as good or better.

Here is the link:

That seems to be the (latest) million dollar question...is DVCPro HD superior to HDV? Some say DVCPro is an old compression formula that has been surpassed, others say the GOPs of HDV mean soft motion... I'm sure once the correct answer is posted in DV.com we can all get back to deciding on which is the one true religion (in 3 posts or less).:evil:

That looks pretty good...downloaded the 1080 version and was impressed by the quality of some of the shots. Would love to see something similar shot on the HVX...
