[javieralza]

do more full size cameras record better or why do they use these

[BBrtqB]

@javieralza Better quality, tons of more features such as color changes examples of color change include, knee, matrix, color temperature, contrast, saturation, preset colors, white balance, then there's exposure control (aperture or iris), way better image stabilization, microphone outputs, handles on top and better lenses for better quality, better zoom and manual focus and other controls, also more durability and shutter speed optiuons and other stuff

[001Noni]

linda la camara sony, pero solo por afuera, porque el momento de filmar en interiores como en exteriores tiene pésima resolucón.

[pepijndevree]

I need €250,- and I can buy that camera

[SecondLifeSailing]

Camera porn just needs a 70s guitar bum chica wah wah - or a sax ;)P

[LukasKOHall]

it looks professional and is almost as big as a realle professional camera, BUT IT IS NOT! its video-quality is really bad, buy the HV30, it might not look as good as this big camera, but its quality is much better!

DON'T BUY THE Sony HVR-HD1000E !!!

[22805852]

what is the cost of this camera in the U.S. and its techniques espcificaciones

[persini]

are Carl Zeiss better than Sony G's?

[spellboundtube]

DON'T BUY OFF PRO VISUAL DIRECT WEBSITE

SONY HVR-HD1000

I brought this camera and it broke with little use. The reason was I brought it from an online company. Provisual Direct - don't buy from these people -

I payed 275 pounds for a five year warranty which was a waste of paper. They refused to fix it, even when I sent it to them - they sent it back the same day in a different smaller box to save themselves money. Just a warning in case anyone thinks of going to those people. Thank you

[HowToDs]

SHIT! JUST SAW THIS ON EBAY FOR £300!!! SHOULD I BID?

[Dentareem]

These bad boys don't fetch for too much nowadays. Was considering buying one, just it's just too big for what I wanted. Cheapest I saw was around £1.2k. Looks like a nice camera.

[MegaEBoy]

good thing you upgraded, no offence but that camera your using isnt the best.

[MsMsJoker]

How much is this camera??

[editedbyfailure]

~£1000

[latterdayhertic]

this camera, i found to be a little to basic, the only thing i liked on it was the touch screen and even that didn't work to great.

if you want a truly good sony camera of this size get a Sony HVR-Z1E HD its a lot more expensive at over £3,000 but its a really good piece of kit.

[dvamateur]

I agree that this camera lacks in lowlight department and image quality in general. It is basicallly an HC9 camera in a big body. However, after very short time I realized how many advantages the HD1000 has over the HC9. It has a very usable manual control (HC9's ring is unusable), it makes much steadier video when resting on your shoulder, and you cactually have a lot of space to mount camera light AND wireless microphone receiver. You could not possible mount those on the HC9.

[MapleGMS]

I don't understand, I'M TOTALLY LOST.

I'm planning onpurchasing that camera in the future.

Do you think I shouldn't?

[rememberstudio]

@nelsonmilian00 are you honestly comparing Sony camcorders to the canon 7d? the camera may shoot hd video, but it's so not user friendly. can't use the camera on a steadicam, can't have XLR phantom powered external mics, and can't have a hard copy of your footage on a minidv tape. you really can't compare the handling on a semi-pro / pro camcorder to a DSLR's. Canon was aiming for is to give the fancy photographers a chance to make a short HD montage for their clients / newlyweds, as a bonus.

[rememberstudio]

be that as it may, it''s still Totally worth it. the quality of my movies has increased drastically ever since I got the FX1000. btw the FX1 is the shittiest camera I've ever seen.

[kelvintwt]

sorry if this sounds stupid. but i really need to know how do i charge the battery on the camcorder and ensure it's charging? thanks.

[rememberstudio]

the cam should have a little led to indicate the status of your battery.

[dvamateur]

@rememberstudio When the camera is turned off, hold the DISAPLAY/BATT INFO button. It will show you exactly what the status of the battery is.

[rememberstudio]

@dvamateur yeah I know, I just told the guy with the battery charging problem to look for the little led that indicates that the battery is charging. but thanks anyways, good tip, good to know:D cheers

[dvamateur]

@kelvintwt I recommend the optonal external charger. It shows exactly how much time is left to fully charge.

[kelvintwt]

thanks a lot for the reply. just got myself an external charger and working great now. cheers.

[rememberstudio]

this camera sucks, it's very amateur like. it looks quite similar to the panasonic md10000, also a crappy camera. Can't really find the use for the huge lightweight body... why not just get the Sony FX1000?

[Trailers84]

cause this is cheaper

[rememberstudio]

also true!

[dvamateur]

@rememberstudio FX1000 costs twice as much. You can't compare apples to oranges, the FX1000 will surely be better, as it has 3 sensors. I actually had a chance to work with Z5U, which is kind of like FX1000, but with the XLR audio inputs. The image quality of the Z5U is much better than the HD1000, and Z5U has also many great features that the HD1000 lacks. HD1000 is basically an HC-9, but with the nice big ring on the lens, and it's steadier to have a camera on the shoulder than handheld

[rememberstudio]

fair enough. Yeah the FX1k has the same sensor specs as the Z5. both are nice cameras. I'm going for the Z7 next summer.

[dvamateur]

I personally like the S270, which is the same spec as the Z7.  The S270 is only $1000 more expensive than Z7, so it's no brainer to me to go for the S270. But not now. I will get the S270 just before it will have been discontinued, for low price. And the M35 deck to go with it.

[dvamateur]

Interesting camera. One would think, that it is an HC9 in a big body, which is true. The cameras have the same sensor. So, in a way, it is a consumer camera inside of the big empty body. But wait a second. The big body gives you shake free handling on the shoulder, the big manual ring is very smooth and comfortable to use, to make manual operation a breeze, and the camera heft makes it handle very smooth on a tripod. And the ability to make smooth shake free videos is worth every penny!

[theMMaI]

when using it the imbalance is screwing up the shoulder mount operation though. SOme modifications I made (a shoulder band with some weight attached fixed this partially, but its not fully shake-free. The quality of the camera is decent, the audio sucks, even when using an external microphone as the internal circuit likes to oversteer hard

[CorvoJusticeiro]

sonho *.*

[radumicu]

Hi, I've bought that camera despite all the others adviced me not. But, believe me, it is quite an excelent camera. But you have to learn to use it manualy, turn on the ZEBRA function and set the ring for the Exposer. You will be able to open the Sharf/Aperture instantly and you will never make bad records!

[esfootwear]

did dare devil jake seriously just ask does the lens come with it?

who buys a camera without a lens? ahaaaaa

[PeterPW]

Actually, most professional camcorders ($10,000+) are sold without lenses, just "body". Some HD compatible lenses like fujinon brand can cost as much as a car. As far as I know you can unscrew the lens from this camera and attach another, better, if you want.

[kristianboy1]

hay i have a 4pin to 9pin firewire cable, is that right, cause when i plug it in nothing happens, my iphoto should open up

[DareDevilJake]

does the lens come with it?

[AlmightyAzul23]

I've got one too - I love this thing. I use it for all my videos on my channel now. I haven't had any problems with it; although since it's so big, you need a more heavy-duty tripod.

[kristianboy1]

cool video, i just got the sony hvr-hd1000u, i dont think its any different from this one, i was wondering where to find a firewire cable for this camera, PLEASE HELP, ive been lookin everywhere

[AlmightyAzul23]

I bought my firewire cable from Office Max. Most places have them.

[kristianboy1]

ok thanks so much

[BJSTV]

Radio Shack Store

[jera3]

A great camera !!

[quarryMTB]

what would it be like for shooting action sports? i would use it for downhill mountain biking.. would it be too heavy to hold it low down in one hand and be able to maneuver it effectively? do you also have any suggestions for maybe a small professional camera for that purpose? :)

[c2muchmoney]

Sony makes a smaller semi-pro camera called the 'HDR-FX7' (I think) it is still HD and easier to operate with one hand... but do not let its size fool you its still great quality... a little more expensive ($2,000 USD)... now as for mountain biking, you might run into a few problems with any camera that uses tape as a storage medium, the tape might drift off the head as you hit rough terrain and that will corrupt the video, and could damage the camera as well. I would look into digital storage.

[osborneproductions]

also hard drive the disc skips plus you would be crazy to take that sucker to moutain biking thats why they sell action cams

[FelixVanOost94]

It's not as bad as everyone says. I've been filming for 2 years with an HDR-SR12 wih a 120GB HDD taking it downhill mountain biking in my backpack, and I've never had a single problem with it. I've dropped it and crashed and the disk has always shut down before anything could happen.

[osborneproductions]

i have the same exact camera dude but when i shake mine like filming a plane during takeoff it stops recording after to much shaking

[GanEdenAustralia]

empty space inside it.

[c2muchmoney]

cont. digital storage cameras are less susceptible to vibrations although it might be hard to find one that records true HD. There is a company that makes 'crash cams' that can do this but i can't remember the name and they are way to overpriced...

[theMMaI]

Sony also has a new cam meant for this: Sony HXR-MC1P. This camera is meant for head/helmet/shoulder mounting and can withstand shocks and water to some extend

[Luggy14]

now the fucking good price 1600 €

[anttiok]

Is the "shoulder pad" included or do you have to buy it separately?

[TESTOVNIKOVEC]

included :)

[HalomasterA69]

@TESTOVNIKOVEC where can i get it? its not on the sonry site D:

[Emomoz]

@HalomasterA69 UK sony site not US

[HalomasterA69]

@Emomoz is like the 1000U and i still cant find it on the UK site.

[Emomoz]

@HalomasterA69 on the uk site > upper right the search bar you will see "Professional products"

click on it, the new website will show you all the Professional products which

include camcorders.. go to products > Broadcast & Pro A/V > HD / SD Camcorders >

you'll find a range of cameras choose "HDV" > surprise I hope this helps

[HalomasterA69]

@Emomoz thx it helped how much did u get that for?

[Emomoz]

@HalomasterA69 Actually I didn't buy it and I have no idea how much it cost I wish I can help you with that but sorry,

but you can contact "Sony" by going to the same extension that I gave you, next to the camera you'll see three squares inside one under "HVR-HD1000E" choose the middle one which is "For Prices and Information" "Contact Sony" you have to register I guess, put your information and there they'll deal with you about the price.

Alright good luck.

[HalomasterA69]

@Emomoz thx

what kind of tripod do you use?

[TESTOVNIKOVEC]

[ElProyectoFenix]

i bught this camera here inspain for just 1100 euros new...

[IgNiiTe08]

I want this but i need to find 1500 quid first so i can get the camera and all the equipment for it

[harpert55]

I've used the HVR-1000U since 4/08. It's a heavy camcorder & I get tired carrying it on my shoulders after awhile; some shots were tilted slightly - not framed properly - takes time to get used to shooting w/ it.. Getting up from a kneeling position w/ the camcorder on my shoulder is tricky - I've found myself looking upward to see the display/viewfinder & w/ my neck straining. I don't have freedom of movement as I have had w/ smaller camcorders. The camcorder is best used on a tripod.

[hasbeo]

Nice camera, but poor in low light. the manual controls- pain in the rear...

Whit all those uncovenients, i'll miss her:)

[axperjana]

iCaptureProductionz , sell it on ebay and and bay the read HDV sony z7 and you see the diffrence, your camera look good but its not a low lux,

i returned mine last week

[tobiswissen]

Is this camera is very heavy? and it is good to bear on the shoulder? I want to buy and I wanted to ask whether this is beneficial if you are not so much money to spend? and they have a bag for this camera and how much it cost? And even ask ne see how with the battery charging from?

I would be pleased to answer their many thanks

Sorry for my bad English

[TESTOVNIKOVEC]

The camera isn´t too heavy, but if you have it on a shoulder for longer time, it could be for someone difficult (to hold the camera still). Camera on a shoulder bears good.

I am from CZ, so I don´t know how prices are abroad.

Bags, I think there are some original bags from Sony (try to search for accessories on sony official sales websites), but as I seen, they vere too expensive (in CZ).

[TESTOVNIKOVEC]

I have my own camera in tinny case - it fits perfectly and the camera is in safe position. It prevents from any movements or something, that could cause any damage to the camera.

The case itself was not expensive (about 1/5 of price in comparison with original sony bags).

[RnKstudio]

I love this cam

watch my account

[DramaKidStudioz]

That's a mean tripod you got there too! Yea, I trying to decide between the HVR HD1000 and the HMC70 for my event videography camera, and later i will upgrade for my ENG camera for my films, i'mma filmmaker/director

[AdrianNemeti]

I have use it for 3 events, and i'm nostalgic after it.

His major lack is: the low light capabilities due to the small optics and the complicated manual control of the most important functions.

The all "doing ring" is not a solution for prosumer or pro user.

Over all, the images taken with this camera was all the time remarcable, everybody ask me what camera i used...:)

Sorry for my poor english.

[maxiboland]

Cool video.

good camera

[RnKstudio]

i'm going to buy this camera to but one question...i think the microfone is included in the price, isn't it?

[TESTOVNIKOVEC]

yes, the microphone is included.

In the box with the camcorder are also Ac adaptor, a/v cable, eye cup, battery (NP-F570), lens hood and operating guide (book and cd rom).

[iCaptureProductionz]

I have this camera. seems good but when I shoot in HDV it looks good on the LCD but when i downconvert to DV its very grainy. what am I doing wrong?

[russhurley]

try shooting in DV and see if you get the same problem.

[Tejgehdu]

cool looking forward to it :-)

[Tejgehdu]

mor vid of this pls :-)

[TESTOVNIKOVEC]

more vids will be added
