Going pro? Save for something better. 2007-03-01
I'll be diplomatic and say this isn't a bad camera. But I used to shoot a lot of live events and concerts, and with a DVX100 and a DVC80 to choose from, this camera would always get stuck on the lowest priority shot. It's big, but mostly hollow, so it's almost as light as a Canon ZR series. In sunlight or other bright light, you're fine, but in low light you really know it's a 1-CCD camera. The colors wash out and the picture gets noisy. For a third of the price you could get a consumer level camera (Canon ZR) that'll shoot nearly as well (if not looking as imposing) while you save your pennies for a 3-CCD model.


Good Camera 2007-01-26
This camera is execellent and beautiful crystal picture and sperverb stereo/surrand sound makes this camera one of the best.


Nice camera 2006-07-24
Like the other review said, this is a good starter camera. After being out of the video business for about 5 years I decided to by this camera for a wedding I was shooting. I got it at a great price. There are a few problems though. It's a little hard to deal with in low light. I have a mounted 150-watt light and it still hard to deal with. If you gain up one it's kind of grainy. But if you are not doing anything that is broadcast quality then this is a good camera. Since I'm doing low budget wedding this is perfect for me.


good pro beginers camera 2006-03-08
This is a great starter camera if you are thinking about getting into videograghy. This camera will give you the pro look, but it seems to be just a consumer level camera in a pro package. quality seems to be very good however, I have only shot a few hrs of tape so far. if you can come up with an extra $1000 seriously consider a different camera that really is on the pro level.


Excelente cámara dependiendo con que la compares... 2005-09-30
Compre la DVC7 hace ya poco mas de un año en Amazon. La compre porque mi esposa estudio la carrera y estaba interesada en tener sus propios negocios en el tema de video digital.

Voy a separar el review en varios temas que me parecen fundamentales:

Calidad de Imagen

La camara tiene 1CCD de 1/3 sino me equivoco, lo cual la hace medianamente aceptable entre las camaras de tipo consumer, OJO, no hablo de las Semi pro o Pro. Sin embargo, tiene un calidad de imagen impresioante en ambientes de iluminacion controlada. Si vas a usarla en ambiente oscuros, encontraras algunas cosas que te sorprenderan si no estas familiarizado con las camaras profesionales. En conclusion, si la vas a usar en situaciones de iluminacion razonable, te ira de las mil maravillas (tengo unas imagenes excelentes filmadas con esta camara)

Construccion

El formato de la camara es grande, tipo camara profesional, lo que la hace relativamente impresionante a primera vista. Digamos que el 99% de las personas que te vean con esta camara pensaran qeu definitivamente sabes lo que haces... La camara es basicamente plastica, y no pesa mucho, apenas 3 kilos. No pretendas usarla con una Glidecam sin el soporte de cuerpo, simplemente sera imposible de cargar. El viewfinder me parece muy pequeno, y no es adaptable para usar con el ojo izquierdo. La pantalla LCD mide 2.5¨, no me parecia pequenna hast que compre otra camara, una sony con pantalla de 3.5 se ve inmensa!, pero la de la panasonic se ve muy bien tambien.

Ubicacion de Controles

La camara peude ser utilizada al hombro, tipo camarografo de tv, o con el asa para mano, en ambos sitios, tiene control de grabacion y zoom. El zoom del asa es mas suave y lento que el zoom en la parte del handgrip. Algo que me encanta y me resulta super util cuando fimamos eventos largos donde no puede haber edicion, es la posibilidad de hacer fade sin la necesidad de estar grabando (ideal para cuando usas la camara con salida directa sin usar cassettes). Por lo demas, los controles son faciles y rapidos de comprender yy utilizar.

Ventajas contra otras camaras

Si quieres utilizar funciones ed Pros sin ser uno de ellos, pero aprender en el camino, esta camara es para ti. Tiene control de foco con un ring en la parte delantera, entrada plug de microfono, salida de audifonos, control de volumen de grabacion, ganancia, etc, control de shutter, de ganancia (basico en situaciones super oscuras), control de white balance, etc.

Problemas ocurridos

Despues de unos meses tuve que enviarla a soporte tecnico por un problema medio extranno, se colgaba y n queria grabar, aparentemente era u problema con unas piezas, investigue en internet y aparentemente a nadie mas le sucedio, por lo que asumo qeu fue mala suerte y n un problema con estas camaras. Otro detalle fue medio anno despues, durante un evento en un hotel, aparentemente no le fue bien con el aire acondicionado, ya que me saco un mensaje de Condensacion luego de varias horas de uso, un poco de ventilacion y continuo en el trabajo sin problemas.

Impacto Visual

Definitivamente se ve bien, tiene el peso correcto si quieres ahcer tomas suaves, no es muy pesada como para que no la opere una mujer, y no es muy liviana para que se mueva con cualqueir pequenna reaccion de tu mano.

A los clientes siempre les llama la atencion el aspecto de esta camara, lo cuale s muy bueno cuando de negocios se trata.

Manejo en la PC

Se conecta sin problemas, la utilizo para bajar y subir video en formato DV con premiere, studio, etc.

En conclusion, si no quieres gastar en una sony de 3ccd o una canon tipo xl2 o similar, y quieres tomartelo con calma, esta es una buena opcion, no te va a defraudar.

Review: ... "Click! The No Nonsense Guide to Digital Cameras" is misnamed. It covers a lot more than just cameras. In a couple of hundred pages, it includes using a scanner and Adobe Photoshop Elements 2 to rescue faded, damaged family photos, the basic guidelines to good picture taking, how to use Elements 2 to improve your digital photos, and how to print and preserve your pictures for the ages. White, the author of the bestseller "How Computers Work," knows how to pack a lot of helpful, understandable information in a brief no nonsense book.

Review: "This Camera is one of the best in its price range. It takes beautiful clear pictures and can be used right out of the box, but its worth learning all its features. The included memory holds about 20-25 pictures so I upgraded to 128mb. I reccomend getting a 128mb card and the Sony camera case. Not only is this one of the best cameras in its class it includes decent software and rechargeable batteries that are at least a 20$ value.
HIGHLY reccomend over canon,kodak, and fuji. One more thing this camera has CARL Zeiss lens (if you dont know, great lens) all the competetors have generic lens."

A couple of digital photography experts weigh the advantages and disadvantages of film vs. digital photography, and explain the basics underlying both types of photography. The Grottas provide reality checks on such issues as whether the number of megapixels really matter, and tips on camera selection, use, and e-mailing and organizing photos. The handbook includes color and b&w images, a glossary, and sidebars and Web links for further technical details.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland.

From the Back Cover The megapixel hype
The fact is a camera’s megapixel rating is only a measure of how many pixels (photosensitive sites) an image sensor has…. An image sensor is simply one component of an entire system that produces a digital photograph… So resist buying into the megapixel hype when you’re choosing a digital camera. From Chapter 1
