There are technical things that the DVX can and can’t do. But there aren’t any limitations as to genre.

I might make a romantic comedy once i get the camera, first a gritty action drama though

Ah, yes... My favorite filter for that genre is a Schneider Grit 1+.

Re: love story on DVX?
I thought LOST IN TRANSLATION was kind of a touching fuzzy film and would have held up great on the DVX. I dont think shooting VANITY FAIR would hold up well on the DVX but something like LOST or even a 21 Grams (NOt really a love story is it) would be suitable.

Personally, I think this is an absurd topic. There is no "look" to a love story. You can always add diffusion filters either during production or in post if you are talking about that stereotypical "love story" look. Otherwise, a film like this poses the same challenges as any other genre.

Re: love story on DVX?
well well well. Isn't it sooooooooooooo funny. Everybody just keep laughing at my expense. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Glad to see you all laughing.
*Anyway* the question I was asking was a serious one. Film is very forgiving on people's skin (soft and intimate -- resist the joke Rich!) whereas video's so harsh and fine. I'm being honest here. Can video, specifically DVX video, create this look believably? If it can't I'll have to save more money and move to film. So real honest responses would be appreciated.

Re: love story on DVX?
Okay, real answer. Yes, the DVX is more than capable of creating the look you are talking about.
There is so much control over the picture with this camera that you can create multiple looks that can be as different as black and white....
You also have the option to treat the footage in post production but as far as that harsh video look, the DVX is capable of zapping that completely. Particularly in progressive mode.

Understood. That being the case, I don't think you asked the question well enough the first time around.
Actually, the DVX has detail softening controls specifically aimed at exactly what you're talking about -- it's a setting called "skin detail." You can soften imperfections and achieve a whole host of other effects with it (in combination with other settings).
