Sony HDV redefines semi-pro expectations

Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2005
The Bottom Line: Great cam, great price, but buy a tripod, shoot everything on HD and downgrade to SD for present editing.
Review: Forget XL2's, forget the HD1. This is the only camera that counts.

The LCD screen is a bit cookie at first, but users of pro-cameras will find it similar to a conventional EVF.

The shot transition buttons are amazing, the...

Sony's got a winner here!

Date of Review:  Jul 1, 2007
