Well produced review for a very tasty piece of kit!
Is the quality of the viewfinders comparable with the EX1/3? (i.e. is the eyepiece rubbish?)
The pop out LCD is as good but no better than the EX-1 but the viewfinder is not very usable.
What is the maximum recording time on a tape? Does the solid state add-on record onto standard CF cards? If so, I imagine this is extremely economical.
Tape is limited to the mini format so 63min. Yes but you need to choose 133x or preferably 300x CF cards. 32Gig records just over 2 hours of HDV.
Just wondering if HVR Z5 comes with true 16:9 chip …
