I finally got a copy; thank you Zoom! I just have a few questions... Both camera's had very different looking shots, obviously. The thing is, I acutally liked both cameras' footage. Of course, it is probably very difficult, if possible, to acheive the look of the DVX100 with the PD150. My question is, is it possible to get that same look of the PD150 with the DVX100? If shooting in 60i with standard color settings, is it possible to get that 'broadcast' look that the Sony had? If so, I can see the DVX100 as an extremely versatile tool.
The only thing I saw that shocked me was the abundance of green in the DVX's picture. I could notice that the male actor's hair seemed to be unnaturally greenish, and parts of the wall were too. Was there some setting that produced that effect (that could be changed)? To my recollection, the Sony's colors seemed more accurate (except when blown out by the standard gamma curve) in terms of the hair and wall. That, and there was more grain in the DVX's over the Sony's, especially in shadowy areas, like the floor in the corner of the bar. Was this grain and color difference a result of Cinegamma, 24pa and other color settings (the master pedestal on the seemed like it was set a little high) on the DVX?
The performance of the DVX100 astounded me--it really did look worlds different than the PD150. I can't wait to get my hands on one!
