Found it today while looking for discussion of Adam Wilt's article. You excerpted just the right bits -- it's a provocative conclusion. Just wish they had another day to continue the comparison. The boon of the HVX200 / P2 seems to be that it can capture DVCPRO-HD. I am very keen to get a handle on low-budget film-look possibilities for DVCPRO-HD workflow. Does that camera/format offer the ultimate quality for a low-budget? 24 frame 1080p?!? Look forward to the upcoming post and hope it will help with these questions. (One of the defining benefits of DV was that it was a "lossless" digital workflow. Or is this new problem of "lossy" compression and recompression in HDV workflow just not so serious?) Glad you're going to write more. Thanks. Congratulations on your blog. Found it today while looking for discussion of Adam Wilt’s article.

There's been a lot of angry posts on DVXUser and even a mini flamewar on Mike's site (HDForIndies) where people are slamming these cameras (especially the Sony Z1) since Adam's comment about how you could use any of these cameras to create credible content ruffled more than a couple of feathers.

I have made the correction. Good looking out. You are correct GlassBlowersCat, the Varicam shoots on DVCPRO HD. I have made the correction. Good looking out.

I agree, I wish the article had spent a little more time on "movie"-related issues. But what else can you expect from a self-proclaimed "video geek"?
