Having been working in the video business since 1988 I have amassed a great amount of knowledge of both the kit and production values over the last 30 years.

price is tooooo high! was ok 12.000
I have to agree with this one £14K is not the figure I was quoted when this camcorder was announced…sadly as I have said before this camera is firstly positioned at the broadcast and rental market. Those of us with EX-3s looking to jump have a vast cavern to cross. With the 2/3″ chips they are looking at a different end user which is sad as many EX-1/3 users would have loved to own this camcorder and Sony should have rewarded their loyalty but then the only loyal Warrior left on the planet is right here…HD Warrior.
Puhhh …
Even 12k£ would bee too much.
4:2:0 not even 4:2:2
8 Bit no 10 Bit
SD is an option, extra at cost ….
So, what is really worth the price ?
The SD option is a joke when you get this as part of the package with the lesser EX-1R. You can get 4:2:2 direct from the HD-SDI output using a Nanoflash but once again at an extra cost of £2700.
