that sony rep is a moron, it's a expencive camera and he's selling it with info so basic! I want to know the tech stuff, not does it have a god damn expanded focus function!!! =P
@amigosud Those numbers are ratio that represent the amount of sampling for each primary color (RGB). 4.4.4 tells you that each of those have been sampled at 13.5Mhz. This camera DOES NOT deliver 4.4.4 but 4.2.0 (13.5Mhz for Green + Luninance, and then 6.75Mhz for each odd line). 4.2.0 is found on DVD and all DV formats (MiniDV, DVCAM, DVCPRO...). The good news is you can bypass that sampling and get 4.2.2 by using their dual HDSDI...at 10 bits ! (instead 8). Hope this info helps.
Nice review guys.. it'd be interesting to see some shots of fast moving subjects, some variable frame rate, etc. However... that's just me being interested. Nice review.
@JogBird 3.5k sensor debayered down to full 1080p with full 4:4:4 color information. Photosites also have 4 times the amount of surface area as Reds MX sensor (12 microns), giving it ridiculous low light capability, dynamic range, and biggest of all, absolutely zero noise, even when pushed around to 18db of gain. It can see in the dark!
Great vid but can't stand the F$#% large CVP logo on the screen!!!!!
