Letting my DVX go = (

[noloc45]

How to cope? Im gonna let my DVX go and buy me a JVC GZ-HD7 set. I dont know. My first good camcorder was the GZ-HD7 and as much as I read and heard people saying how bad it was, I never found it to be a problem. I like the picture quality and it has some pretty good manual controls + focus ring (YES!!!). I dont know, Ive played around with multiple cams and for the price, I think the GZ-HD7 is GREAT. Let me know what you think and if I should NOT sell my DVX. Thanks!!

Well, you're dropping out of Panny world to go with 1/5" chips. Don't know if the "HD" part makes up for this...

I dont know man. I like how the DVX looks, but the GZ-HD7 looks great too. And I rather work with the 3 same cameras and not mixed. My hope is make something good with the GZ-HD7 and then with some funding hit up 3 HVX200s. But I know that all work that Ive done with the GZ-HD7 has turned out great. All work done with the DVX has turned out great too, but the GZ-HD7 is much sharper.

Yeah I dont think HD is worht the 1/5 vs 1/3 loss.

But if the 1/5 CCD turns out a much sharper image than the 1/3, whats not to like?
