Hello.
I’m centimeters away from bying the EX3, but then I saw this post. As anybody will understand it’s hard to spend so much money on a videocamera if there is an update just around the corner. So my question is, does anybody know when the EX3 update is available on the European market?
Regards

[Christopher Thuesen] “update just around the corner.”
Sony isn’t making this public. You have to have a trusted dealer who will let you know that they have the new shipment in.

Sony is mailing me a sales brochure. I’ll post any new changes I see. The local dealer (Rule Broadcast / Boston Camera) told me that the new features listed in the first post are the only changes.
I thought the old hand grip was a pain. I don’t know if the new one will be that much better.
- 1. The lens hand grip has been changed to the same hand grip as that of the PMW-EX1R, with improved ergonomics for increased user comfort when used hand-held.
- 2. The handgrip also incorporates a One-Push Auto Iris button, again similar to the PMW-EX1R,which the camcorder (PMW-EX3) fully supports.
- 3. The lens focus ring, which is slideable from the AF/MF position to the Full MF postion, now includes the easily seen orange painted ring like the PMW-EX1R so that the current operational position of the focus ring can be easily discerned.
- 4. The PMW-EX3/2 now includes a promotional 16GB SxS card

If Sony goes by past practice (as with the EX1R) there will probably be a cache record function on the updated EX3. Sony may even include SD recording.

Given Sony mentions there’s no name change in the product, I have a hunch this is just one of those “the specs may change without notice” updates that one sees as a disclaimer on a lot of product literature spec sheets. The fact that this seems to be going out to dealers and not being used in public marketing, I suspect they think there’s nothing major added as a sales generator.

Craig is correct, the only changes to the model are what are listed in the original post
