" Will producers shell out the Varicam rates when the HVX will "do, roughly but not exactly the same thing"

Producers that normaly would rent the Varicam NO they will not shoot their project on HVX 200 because "roughly "isn"t good enough for their projects .. the codec may be the same BUT 1/3" CCD's just don't give you teh same image as 2/3 " CCD's ... they are paying for quality...

the DVX uses the same codec as 2/3 DV25 camera's and it has a very nice image BUT it didn't away with 2/3" camera's .. most of the camerpersons i know make their living with 2/3 camera's ( most carry a hand size camera for B roll) ... the HVX is aimed at those that can't afford a 20K + camera .. it's for persons that bought the DVX, XL2 etc to move up to HD at a affordable entry price .. bottom line IMO 90% of those that buy the HVX 200 ( or HDV) are buying it because of the PRICE .. if they had the choice to shoot varicam or HVX ( for same rental price) IMO 90% would go varicam .. for myself i prefer handsize camera ( i'll give up some quality for the size- and YES once the HVX becomes available i have my CC ready ) ... but if i want/need the extra quality i'd rent Varicam or shoot film ..
