| Re: Canon HV20 or Sony HC7 : High Definition Video Cameras. Which Ones Best???
Hi gfilmsuk. Thanks loads for your answer.
I understand regarding the lack of zoom... I'm also worried about the lack of proper "manual" controls. However, I've spoken to other people who have similar HD consumer cameras with a 10x optical zoom, and they say that with HD you can push it to 20x using the digital zoom and still get a really good picture. Also I was thinking of investing in a tele-converter.
I know I should really save up for the XL1 but I do have reservations about that as well. I like to carry a video camera/tripod with me at all times. Lumping a XL1 around isn't going to be very practical due to it's size.
What I really need is a camera like the HV20 with detachable lenses and manual focus... then I'd be happy! |
