BTW and for an update, as of this afternoon we've switched gears and unless
something changes by monday morning, we're going to go with the DVC60
because as many have suggested in here the DVX100A is somewhat unstable in
the studio when panning. now while we won't be doing much panning (not
hardly any at all) i didn't like how it really struggled to hold color
adjustment when the f stop increased in manual and there were actually
points where it couldn't find a stable point for about 3 to 6 seconds.
that's too outta there for me. however, the dvc60 (about a 1000 cheaper) is
much more stable, and when in total manual has a nice DOF and really nice
color stability. obviously when the f stop got too far out AND the shutter
was set to the 1000's it went crazy and really looked cool :o)
in addittion, we're going to get ONE SONY pd150 or 170 for field work
because the 60's are not a comfortable camera to pack around and play or
we'll wait to get enough money for one z1u or wait for the new HD cams
coming out in november from jvc, canon, and panasonic.
