God love my clients ...
Got delivery of two new cameras last month .. A couple of twin EX-1s ... XDCAM HD .. damn if you haven t read about these cameras yet, do yourself a favour and check em out! ...
All be it it's a little over kill for web. But I shoot to maximise content for my client base .. and most of my clients are also DVD and Broadcast based. So for this particular client (for whom I shoot gonzo and Pro Adult DVDs) this is the right camera! ... Awesome Picture that compares it self to it's bigger brother the F355.
1080 to 720 switchable ... Multi format with S & S record (memory card) the 16 gig cards can hold upto 100 min od the highest quality HD footage @ an effective pixel count of 1920 x 1080, which produce images in full HD resolution and realizes 800Mbps high-speed data transfer.
So cool new sony features include: The Rec Review can be set to 3 seconds, 10 seconds and clip .. a great tool to have when shooting. A great new addition (though I still don't how to use it for porn) is the “Slow & Quick Motion” capability. Real 1080 24p recording to allow for an awesome 35mm transfer (something I'm hoping to do in the next year on a feature adult production)
All in all, one great camera. Puts the HVX200 to shame .. LOL
The only draw back as of late is the editing platform. Though FCPHD has the XD codecs, I've been reading about lots of errors and problems with apple vs sony XD. Since I'm a PC person rather then a mac (though I do edit on mac on occasion) I was hoping that the Matrox RTX2 would do the job .. looks like right now it can't however Cineform promises an XD codecs for Adobe CS3 in the very near future. Right now, the only pc edit platform available for the EX-1 is the Matrox Axio .. and awesome edit suite that I would love to own, but just a little too pricey .. so My fingers are crossed for the RTCX2 to iether do an upfgrade to they're firmware or Cineforms new ex1 codecs.
