Unboxed: JVC's 3CCD HiDef Hard Drive video cam with SDHC sup

Recently, I wrote about how the high capacity versions of Secure Digital cards (officially "SDHC") were going to revolutionize the digital imaging market, particularly video. Although there are only some 8GB versions floating around, SDHC cards should reach capacities of 32 GB at some point (maybe by '09 if not earlier). Although several video cameras with SD slots that explicitly support the "HC" variant of the Secure Digital storage specification, are coming onto the market, seeing a combination of SDHC support, 3 CCDs, Hi-Def video, and a 60 GB hard drive in a single camera that comes in around $1000 is pretty exciting.

The camera is definitely a prosumer (pro-consumer) model but the question is, at about 8x less than cost of our professional Panasonic camera, can it handle our professional needs. We won't know until we put it through its paces (which we intend to do). But the good news is that the camera is here as is one of its peripherals (for burning DVDs so the HD content — if that's what you're recording in — can be easily archived to DVD). But in the meantime, I thought I'd share the unboxing experience with you on video.

hes not and idiot... he has a question that he doesnt know the answer to in which why he asked it. From your repy you seem like the average punk who thinks hes higher then people or has the need to assult someone who doesnt know something that u may know..maybe hes not too big in technology and so what may seem like a common sense type thing to u is completly unkown thing to him. Sometimes gotta think a little more before u insult someone man. Have a little respect

Actually, the Everios process images at 1080p60 and then convert them to 1080i in the encoding process... this applies to the latest models (HD6). Not sure if it does apply to the HD7.
