SONY HDR-FX1 vs Sony HDR-HC1

I know many are using both of these cams, was wondering if there is much difference between the 2 besides the price tag. Also the Sony HDR-HC1 is much smaller and I would think would be easier to work with especially if shooting POV style.. Any thoughts and comments would be appreciated :)

HDR-FX1 has 3 ccd's --- better color and better in low light---but it is too large for POV--- Trust me.

you mean that HDR-HC1 doesn't have 3ccd? that can't be right..

but if you say so.. :upsidedow


EDIT: Ok, I double checked and it doesn't have 3ccd.. I'm surprised

btw I think SONY HDR-FX1 is a great camera and well worth its price! :thumbsup

I'd try the HVR-V1U. Or the new Canon, Canon XH G1 or A1. The FX-1 was a first gen and had problems with it. Go with a newer model IMO. But POV with it is very possible!

Sony DCR-DVD405 with 2 MP video and 3 MP photo ... :thumbsup

HC1 has the CMOS
It's a nice cam I have one.

canon makes a small hdv camera looks very cool

I have FX1, 3 of them,and i am really satisfed how they work... not only 3cc.. it is hdv as well,damn good if u ask me!

HDR-FX1

great for movie making

What is a good HD camera for normal day use? IE like sporting events etc etc

If your looking for true HD (not HDV) as well as variable frame rate recording and 720p you have to look at the HVX200 from Panasonic.
