Seeing I can still get several 5 to 6 year old Sony PC range models (new) with a bit of searching...Im not worried.. But when I finaly need a new camera, I'll see whats hot by then.. Seeing that PC 'style' HDV models are coming out from other manifacturers (JVC I believe) Sony will probably do the same at some point... We'll see...JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

Costyn 0 #4 August 10, 2006 QuoteHC3 That looks like a sweet camera. I wonder, will we still be able to Firewire footage to eachother in the future, seeing as it will probably come with some forms of DRM. This might be a video camera that is better top mounted, which would mean I could move my stills to the side of my head. Anybody jumping stills on the side? I think the framing would actually improve for wingsuiting, where you're mostly taking pictures looking at the side.

Zoter 0 #5 August 11, 2006 When the video camera is as expensive as the stills/lens.... you really are going to have to think hard about which one is going to be sidemounted without a box ! I mean its like having two nice pigs and having to pick one to send for slaughter ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
docjohn 0 #6 August 11, 2006 I'm still using my PC105 so I haven't kept up on the latest developements. So do the new video cameras save video to RAM rather than miniDV tape? Or to those little DVD disks? . Doc http://www.manifestmaster.com/video Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faber 0 #7 August 11, 2006 i ruined my pc105e i now got myself a dcr-hc96e its an awsome cam i still just has a few cons: You need to go into the menu to set the manual focus. You need the docing station to firewire besides that i think its a great cam Stay safe Stefan Faber Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
