Also, it seems as though the sources on the other post made a mistake (which I followed) - it was reported that the NEX5 shot 1080p, but Sony's official press release says it only shoots 1080i. Whoops.]]>May 11th 2010 4:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/May 11th 2010 3:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/May 11th 2010 3:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/You're kidding right? As an SLR shooter myself even I know these SLRs don't compare to SONY'S high end cinema systems. There's a lot more to a camera than a sensor. Color depth, bit rate, input/outputs, form factor, resolution, frame rates, CONTROL. Sony's higher end cameras which fall more in the 60-120K range not 250K, which is more IMAX range, are a lot better than these SLRs.

Studios aren't going crazy, you are with this logic. None of the main shots in Iron Man 2 are 5D, HOUSE and Numb3rs are television shows and their delivery format is totally different. Plus HOUSE is the first case where the camera is A cam. Michael Bay isn't making the next Transformers on 5D. Michael Mann uses SONY digital cameras for his movies, not SLRs, not even RED. There are a reason real directors and real cinema productions use high end Digital cameras like the Panavision Genesis, Phantom, RED One, and SONY FW900, F23 and F35. ]]>May 11th 2010 4:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/May 11th 2010 4:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/
The DSLRs have been very impressive in what they can accomplish. There are places where the definitely make sense to use. On the corporate video level, I'd probably go that direction these days. The same with a lot of documentary videos too.

But they are not film resolution, lack the color space of the digital film cameras, and lack the processing & storage power needed for digital filming too.]]>May 11th 2010 11:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/
The F23 and F35 are vastly superior to dSLR based cameras. Particularly in the case of the F35. Keep in mind, the Sony F35 is also the Panavision Genesis.

The F35 is a CCD camera that does pixel binning and has a global shutter. To fit into an S35 frame, they bin over 5 pixels into one, which means dramatically higher dynamic range and noise profile, and the global shutter means zero rolling shutter artifact (even the Reds and Arris have these artifacts). There isn't another video camera with a CCD sensor that large and film-like quality.]]>May 11th 2010 11:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/May 11th 2010 3:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/May 11th 2010 4:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/May 11th 2010 4:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/

Also, the 7D is a very good still camera. This one will not be as good; that's nearly certain.]]>May 11th 2010 4:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/And the 7D is a great camera which you can use today - although if you do mostly video I think it would be better to invest in something dedicated even if it is only for the form factor.]]>May 11th 2010 4:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/Still, if you do want to go down the DSLR route, get the 550d - same guts as the 7d but a whole lot cheaper.

Anyway, as has been noted - the same problems will exist with this Sony cam as exist on the 550/7/5d. Low bit rate and very narrow colour depth. If it's made for video it might have a moire filter though, so that would be nice.]]>May 11th 2010 6:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/
And although other people are right in learning to shoot video on a real camcorder is going to be easier, the truth is that if you want to learn how to work with exposure/depth of field/and aperture for artistic shots, then the Ti & 7D are great options.

It is as if I said, "oh you are a new photographer, then you should start with a point and shoot". But really, when we go to school and learn photography, you are required to bring an SLR.

I say learn on the right tools for filmmaking. If you want to video tape your friends and family, do grab a simple camcorder. Video on a DSLR can be challenging to capture the fleeting moments, but rocks when you are able to plan and execute your artistic vision.]]>May 11th 2010 11:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/May 11th 2010 7:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/11/sony-teases-high-end-camcorder-with-exmore-apc-hd-sensor-and-int/

With a bit of luck this thing will have a clean HD feed so that you can record on a Nano Flash or whatever and bypass AVCHD altogether.

The glove is soon to be thrown down by Sony, Canon let's see what you can do to woo us.

By the way, Sony F35 use is very strong in feature film and major episodic production.

Rental companies are still buying F35 cameras faster than Sony can produce them. The rental demand is that strong for these cameras.

Yes they are expensive, but they also produce amazing images and are very, very reliable, with bulletproof workflow.
