There is so much that I like about the Sony, that it's really frustrating to
me that it has these unnecessary and glaring flaws.
My two Sony pet peeves:
1. The bad audio, for which there is no excuse when working in the digital
world
2. The solarizing (banding) effect that suggests limited color palette or
color reduction.
The zoom lens is sharper and not as absurdly plagued with chromatic
aberration as the Canon XL-H1's lens, it's sharp at full tele, which the
Canon is not, and the color fidelity of the sensors (excepting the CODEC
issues that cause banding) is excellent, in fact some of the best I've seen
in HDV. Sonys have been reliable for me over the past 7 years that I've been
using VX2000/TRV900 models, and frankly, there are many GOOD things about
the V1U.
That it is marred by these two problems is almost tragic, as they would be
batting 1000 if these issues didn't play into the overall picture.
