hi, i was wondering, what is the name of that camera, and about how much do they run?

[nyvs]

@dirimagha Hi dirimagha! The camera is a Sony HVR Z1U. It costs around $5000 new, $3000 used. A comparable newer model Sony HVR Z5U runs about $4000 new.

I would recommend not looking directly into the camera the entire time. When i do interviews i usually have people look off to the side, or not have them stare into the camera the entire time at least

when i change aperture in a bright room it's too dark if it isn't wide open with gain....at f8 or so it has 0 light...so what gives, do you have to film on the sun in order to get enough light to close aperture..the reason i need to do this is so that i can increase/decrease dof...because if i film without gain i have to have it set at f2 and even the slightest camera shake makes everything blurry at that setting.
