HDV vs HD: A Primer
Emmy Award winner, Tim Kolb discusses HDV and its place in the greater scope of HD production formats. Since the inception of the HDV format, we have seen many responces regarding the HDV format and how it fits alongside HDCam, DVCProHD, XDCam and other formats in the greater scope of the HD picture. In this article (which is taken from an HDV Format forum responce), Creative Cow's Tim Kolb gives what we feel is an exemplary job of dissecting the subject and clarifying the many components of the HD universe, HDV being one of those parts....

Taking Sony's HDV Camera to the Outer Limits of Performance
Sony has made a big splash in the video world with the release of their HDV camcorder the HVR-Z1U. By itself, it is capable of images that will amaze even the most jaded video professional. But as with all things, there's always room for improvement. By not having a microphone or wide angle supplied, you can choose better components that will enhance the performance of an already incredible camera. In this article, CreativeCOW.net contributing editor Jim Harvey walks CreativeCOW members through what they need to build the Ultimate Z1U set up.

Sony HDR-FX1 -- an IBC preview
In this pre-IBC 2004 first look, Creative Cow's Ron Lindeboom explores some of the just announced capabilities of Sony's new HDR-FX1 Handycam -- a camcorder that Sony says is targeted to give consumers "HD quality for their personal content." But many independent filmmakers who have ignored JVC's first-to-market HDV camcorders are sure to give Sony's new HDR-FX1 a second glance. Cow members attending IBC 2004 can get a first glimpse of this new Sony camcorder which is being shown in Amsterdam at the Sony booth.
