HDR-HC1

[How Chee Lup]

I am planning to get a camera to do a short film. But issit good enough to get the sony HDR HC1? or is better for me to get FX1 which cost almost doubled.

I also wish to know how much difference is there between the two cameras.

In order to know if the money is well spent.

thaxx :)

No one seems to be commenting on this camera. I have the same questions as you. However in just the last month or so the camera went from $1750 to $1250 from your super discount places.

Anyone have any info on this camera other than what's on the net?

Hi How Chee!

 

I use my HC1 for everything, no neeed for a more expensive camera.

In march I made a short with the Sony Z1U but IMO the HC1E generates a better image than the Z1U.

Sure it has bad low light sensitivity but it doesnt bother me.

HDV rocks and CMOS is my best friend!
