New to the forum and to owning a panasonic camera. Out of the box I can say I am truely impressed. Or camera unfornately shipped with out the p2 card and p2store so we have manily been looing at footage on a plasma and shootiing some dv footage..

The whole noise thing to me was over blown. You can't go into a black hole an shoot but with just a little bit of basic lighting you get a great image. If you don't have lights, and have very little knowlege of how to light I could see how it may be disapointing. Your not going to make a room lit with flouresent look like a movie.


We own several cameras pd-170,xl2, dsr500 and have been satisfied with all of them. With just a few hours of playing with the hvx we all are impressed with this camera. By far a great $8400 investment(thats with 2x4gbp2cards and the p2 store). We have plans to intercut upcoming footage with 16mm and after just a little bit of testing today have no worries. :thumbup:
 
Welcome Jcox and congratulations!!

I'd love to hear more about how your intercutting tests go because I'm now thinking of shooting my next feature in super 16 and using the HVX for one of the story lines.

Enjoy and again, welcome to the forum.

J.
