We got two of em' my friend, it almost makes real life look better than real life, if that makes any sense. Really a great camera, definitely worth the buy if you ask me!

I use it for close up poon shots. Its breathtaking I suggest you try it..

sure they do

all new episodes for www.policeman.net are being shot on HD :)

that looks like a nice one dave

we have that - it's awesome :thumbsup

I have the Z1U, it's wicked. Bells and whistles to spare.

First off hdv is not HD , most pros think it will be digital version of hi 8 only to be replaced by something that will be the standard. Also with about half the surfers on dialup its a waste of big files. Im waiting until the second or third gen comes out , the price will drop and bugs will be sorted out.

Times have changed.

Yep, got one. Great camera.

Do you have any sample videos online?

My mainstream business sells the HDR-FX1. We can't get enough of this stock. It sells like fucking crazy. Not only the camera, but the accessories too. Most people spending so much on the camera also spend a few hundred bucks on branded accessories, too.

Do you have one of iFriends' memberships? (No, I'm not trying to get you to sign up...I'm not that mean). Because then, I can direct you to my HD showcase where they have different download speeds (I don't know what your connection is). In any case, it's this link (All those marked "Play my HD video" are free for iFriends members):

Otherwise, gimme a few minutes. I know some webmasters use my HD clips for ad...lemme just find the links. Brb.

I don't think these guys used the 1080i HD when downloading...but hmm...

This is with the Sony at low light (It was nighttime and I was using one table lamp and two or three extra low lamps to make it more "evening-ish"):

This is with the JVC at better light (Don't like the JVC cam...not recommended):

Okay...finally, I thought of something....d'oh! See iFriends' own samples:

sell on eBay!!!

The top two links' vid are severely compressed. Just look at iFriends' HD samples. Sorry, I'm just multi-tasking and brain's out the window.

that's HDV

Yup. Get the Canon for true HD. It's currently $9k, I think.

Cool stuff, thanks for taking the time to post all this.

we got this 1 and must say its not so good as I supposed.
We will defenitevly buy that new shit from canon

You mean crazy people like this? :1orglaugh :

Damn, that is crazy.

Yes, that's why I am the person sitting in front of the camera and not behind it. I think I'll just sit and be uhh...try to be purdy, while he fucks around with it. I'm afraid...I'm very, very afraid. :1orglaugh
