I like the Saba Saticon and thte Sony Trinicon images...There's something about those old cameras that even though you have HD now...it's nice to have that '1980s' look...Can that look be duplicated via a video editing filter in an NLE?
I've got the A2 and I'd love having a Sony Trinicon camera. In my opinion the Trinicon gives the best picture quality of the tube cameras. I'm pretty amazed that some tubes had better picture quality than the MOS.
I hate ccd. Its image does not last and it looks cheesy. How ever I do feel tube cameras give you this organic and natural look that no digital camera can reproduce.
@princegalena I disagree my friend. Didnt the Sony Trinicon tubes deliver more accurate colour reproduction? The majority of those tube cameras looked faded and washed out, but the trinicon one looked... to me, closest to the original.
@RollinRolex That's true that the Trinicon had the most accurate color, though a little bit over-saturated. The Newvicon, however, had better sharpness and contrast. Though both the Newvicon and Trinicon tubes were definitely better than the Hitachi 1 chip MOS
@princegalena Agreed I genuninely didnt realise there was so much difference in tube cameras - Depending on the camera/tube quality. At least with CCD or CMOS - You at least get a basic standard of what camera quality you use!
Awesome video, I myself dig the fuzzy-round-the-edges look of the old tube cams, retro-charm indeed.
I actually have (in addition to several old tube and chip cameras) an old Sony HVC-2400 (similar to your HVC-2000, but silver in color), but it's missing the viewfinder! (Anyone know a good source for such?)
Just curious--what's the music that you used for this video? I dig it, is it one of Maurizio's tracks?
manche saticons sind wirklich grottich aber das sind auch streifensaticons für consumergeräte, ich hab noch sone alte fernsehkamera mit 3 röhren von jvc und die macht top bilder auch ohne nachzieheffekte (automatic beam control) den größten nachteil sehe ich in der justage der röhren und dem gewaltigem lichtbedarf. ich hab ein objektiv mit blende 1.4 drauf aberdas reicht nicht mal um bei normaler zimmerbeleuchtung irgendwas zu erkennen
Wait, were any of those 3 Tube cameras?

The only good one of the tubes was the Newvicon

@RollinRolex I think we can all pretty much agree that the SABA saticon is definitely the worst of all of them

@RollinRolex I think we can come to the general consensus that the SABA saticon was the worst of them all.

Das Bild der SW Kamera schaut imo gar nicht mal so schlecht aus - als Standbild jedenfalls.
Würde mich interessieren, wie bewegte Bilder oder bewegte Lichtequellen wiedergegeben werden.
