A Question for DSE
by vegasuser88 on Dec 7, 2007 at 10:45:43 pm

Hi Doug,

I asked you this question a while ago, you may remember. I still have not decided on a camera to purchase and I wanted your opinion because you have much more knowledge than me. Here are my options:

Canon XL2 - approx $2500.00
Canon A1 - approx $3000.00
Sony V1U - approx $3500.00
Panasonic HVX-200 - approx $4300.00

I basically produce wedding videos and short films only with no real requirement to go HD other than, it will be our standard way of living soon.. I would like a camera that I do not have to bring 1000 watts of lighting in order to look crisp so low light is preferred. A also like the 24p option which all of these cameras offer (24f in the A1) and I would like to dabble with green screen (Keying). I just like the feel of a shoulder mount camera and that is why I am leaning towards the XL2.

In your opinion, do you think that the XL2 is a worthy purchase? Or, would you lean towards one of the other choices listed above. If there is another camera that I have not mentioned, please let me know... I truly appreciate your time and honesty.

P.S. When are you coming back to Toronto??
