So my school is currently working on a project with Willie Nelson, Shoot out of Luck (http://www.myspace.com/shootoutofluck), we're filming it on Nelson's ranch in Texas; and my teacher is currently debating wether we should shoot with 2 HVX-200s and a CineAlta (main cam.); or 3 HVX-200s. What do you guys think, should we stick with three 200s so we get consistency between the cameras? Would the chip size not cause a noticable difference, if we went with the two HVXs and the Alta? He wants interchangable lenses, so I suggested three HVX-200s with M2 lense adapters so we get the interchangable lenses with a consistency between the three cameras.

So what would you do in this situation? Nelson's not turned off by shooting with small cameras or anything, we shoot the trailer on 2 DVXs without lense adapters, so it's not like camera size is a big deal.

Would the HVX's be used as equally as the CineAlta? If the CineAlta would be used for the majority of your shots I'd go with it. If you have going 1/3 from each cam I'd be more inclined to look at three HVX's.
 
Well I think we'd constantly be using atleast 2 for every shot, the 3rd will be for more action intense sequences. And he wants to use the Alta as the Main camera or not use it at all.

In that scenario, use three HVX's. Burnt Orange?
