Kyle: You're certainly not stuck with the XDCAM choices you could very easily use the HPX3000 or 3700 (New Varicam) along with the HVX200A and get exactly what you need. Disappointing really, considering how many voices loudly and recurringly asked for certain features that thus far have gone ignored. Clearly the big news is the announcement of the P2 Varicams (finally) but in the sub-$10k handhelds it seems Sony is still stealing some Panny thunder. I waited but I don't see anything here thats gonna fit the specs I've been given to work with.įrom the responses I've seen so far from NAB attendees and the emails I've received I'd say the overwhelming response to Panny offerings this year is lukewarm at best for the handheld market. Looks like I'll be doing a PDW 700 and an EX1 for the B cam. When I pointed out that their in house crews regularly shoot on XDCam 350's and 330's I just got told point blank, "And?".
