Post your XL2 Footage

Re: Post your XL2 Footage

[quote author=Sam Potter link=board=XL2;num=1095718263;start=30#36 date=09/26/04 at 02:28:45]The XL2 footage looks freakin' incredible, especially at the 16:9 ratio. Also, the fact that most everything is knob or switch driven compared to the clunky Panasonic menu is a huge plus. As far as nailing that "filmic" look, it was easily on par with the Panasonic, or better.

Now I've just got to decide which to get: an XL1 (they're cheap now with the release of the XL2), a DVX100a, or the XL2. Main concern is, do I really want to wait 4-5 months to save the dough for the 2?

The footage I have seen so far is indeed wonderful looking in clarity and resolution. In a Video way. Still, I can't argue how nice the it looks comparing it to the XL1. The fact that anyone would cpnsider getting an XL1 now is beyond me.

I'm not buying into the 'clunky' Pani menu however. I'm not even sure what that means actually. PFP_VIDEO probally said it best on that subject.

When can someone show us the dman 'filmic' nature of the XL2? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Frye? Anyone?

Yeah, it does seem extremely odd that there has not been one example of 24p footage posted (that I'm aware of) since the XL2s release almost four weeks ago.

By now I was expecting tons of test footage flooding the various websites. NOTHING!!! How hard can it be? ???
 
Re: Post your XL2 Footage

There are three reasons why there is not much XL2 footage
1:) People are lazy
2:) People are try to decide if they wanna sell there DVX for an XL2
3:)People dont knw which to get, the XL2, DVX, or the unreleased FX-1.

I'm just taking guesses here.

Re: Post your XL2 Footage

HAHAHAHA...wow. You know what, i know its bad that people get all emotional about this subject, and that it probably doesnt make for a good discussion board experience....for most. but, i must say, these little outbursts crack me up!
 
Re: Post your XL2 Footage

I know!

OMG.

I read the JEST response and was like "Damn! A little sensitive aren't we?" Like I saud, maybe he's 'seeing' the XL2. I don't know.
 
Re: Post your XL2 Footage

I'm in Norway. The release date is 01. october. But I have a guess why we can't find any XL2 stoff.

6. They are using the camcorder to make money. Don't have time to show up.

Too funny!  ;D

Y'all have to admit though, disjecta did sling the first pile of feces by suggesting bullet #4.  ;)

Jestorious just forgot to duck.  :o
 
Re: Post your XL2 Footage

I'm going to try to get my hands on an XL2 tomarrow. I'll try to get some 24p cinegamma, cinematrix material to post while I'm at it.

so i guess you cant be sleeping with it? ;) just kidding dude.

Hudson, i was liking where the conversation was going before better, with the midget and green pants....i think from now on, every topic that takes a turn for the worse about the dvx/xl2 comparison should be diverted to talk about midgets and hotties.
 
Re: Post your XL2 Footage

Ok, I have to correct my self.
If the XL2 sucks than the DVX100A and the HDV-FX1 sucks too. All of those camcorders has its problem I'm shure.

Bullet #4 indeed was uncalled for but the response was absurd.

Shaw

Yes! Please! :D

Rich Lee

I confess, I sleep with my DVX100. I also think we should talk more about midgets and hotties.

Jestorius

Yes. I am sure each camera has it's own set of Pro's and Con's. Still, it comes down to the monkey behind the camera anyway.
