They've already announced that it won't be HDV, it'll be DVCPRO-HD![/quote]
Hey Barry! You just made me a very happy camper!

The happiness only begins to start there. This P2 recording system is going to be flat-out revolutionary. The more I read about P2, the more "amped" I get on it.

Yes.. DVCpro-HD is what it is supposed to be, It's just one of those too good to be true things in my head for some reason... Dont wanna step on the Varicam but who knows... Panasonic has been known to knock our socks off

Have y'all used the arris digital cam? The size of the CCD chip is the exact same size as a 35mm negative.

[quote author=ddh link=board=Links;num=1108097728;start=30#33 date=02/11/05 at 03:46:27]I agree about the P2 card. It's going to revolutionize shooting....that is when it becomes reasonably priced![/quote]
Yes, price is going to be an issue at first. I wonder though, how long will it take for those P2 cards to become accessible price-wise.
Makes you wonder about event videography, where non-stop recording is a must. The HD1200A deck at $28K is a tad steep for such tasks, as well as not very luggable if you run and gun.
I guess using a laptop will be a viable option, as long as you don't have to move around too much... Although I can only imagine, and chuckle, walking around a wedding, a parade, or some other form of show, having a laptop in a backpack, hooked up to the DVCProHD P2 camcorder for extended record shots. Kind'a funny! :
I guess this would be the downside of P2... other then price that is.

Re: Panasonic @ NAB....
The Questions Rolling Around in My Head Are:
1. P2 Price - Roughly 20% of my revenue is generated via Weddings
2. DVD Standards - 4:2:2 Codec is a definite upgrade but HD doesn't do much for me if my distribution is DVD ( until a DVD HD Standard exists ).
3. Lens - If this is a 1/3" CCD, I will have concerns about the glass on the camera.
4. LUX/Low Light - If this is a 1/3" CCD, the camera will likely be 1.5-2 full stops worse than the current DVX. Hence, there won't be any low light improvement - only degradation.
5. Smears/Artifacts due to 16:9 on the same size CCD.
Hmmm ... I don't know, I am definitely going to need more information before I get too excited ...
