Quick Sony HVR-Z1U test/demo (1080/24p) 

Best test/demo I've ever seen.

The Sony Z1U is great camera you just need to know how to use it in MANUAL MODE :) I am Videographer I added MRC! SSD Device so now it's perfect.

dslr is future

I had to go to the ER to remove the icepicks I involuntarily jammed in my eardrums to stop the aural assualt. Holy f*&k, the audio is Hitler's blitzkrieg and my ears were Poland.

Hey did u use a certain lens to create what you did? bc i cant shoot anything like how u did.. is everything u used to shoot in this video stock? Right now my focus ring is useless it does nothing.

I had this Z1U, and I thought the best way to do 24p was to change the mode to 50i, convert 50i to 25p in post, then undercrank it to 24p (using Cineform at the time which didn't give great results). I have a bit of 50i footage when I got this camera when it first came out in 2004. I did 50i in hopes to have the above (better) workflow in the future, which has became easy now. I took mine to Japan 2 days after I got it and some of the footage (in 60i) can be seen at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QKOYQ8LBH0U.html

Great video I have Z1U and love it. Plus got SR1 witch is nice to and Canon 60D. I love to know witch FS-4 or FS-5 dh pro to get for my Z1U witch is working best...

I have a t2i with 50mm 1.8ii and rode videomic I really want to trade for a actual pro camcorder whats your thoughts. go or no go? thnx great video btw

i am considering breaking into filmmaking with some friends. We are in the market for a decent camera to shoot maybe 45 minutes films, just low budget films/movies to post on Facebook and RU-vid. Do you guys think this camera would be doable or maybe the Sony HXR I believe it's called?

I see Chippy!
