[kutila]

can the 1000 be transferred to the computer?

[CalumetPhotoDE]

Yes

[kutila]

how does that work? does it use a SD or tape?

[CalumetPhotoDE]

The HDRFX-1000 records only to tape, The HVR-C5 records to tape for storage and Compact Flash card for faster downloads

[kutila]

so does that mean the 1000 can't be transfer?

[CalumetPhotoDE]

No, the transfer with the taped based HDRFX-1000 is just slower that the HVR-5C.

i saw the testing clips of the EX3 and i don't see no big problem there,i don't know where is that 'rolling shutter issue of CMOS' came from,so i think i can deal with these camcorder,can't wait to see them on December!

[casablancamicasa]

these camcorder use CMOS chips,so how about the rolling shutter issue of the CMOS? if i keep moving the cam how bad it gonna be? please answer.
