May 23, 2008 at 2:12 amJust got my first look at the HPX2000 with AVC Intra card today… I must say the AVC intra makes the camera a lot cleaner. It does make nice pictures for sure, but it can’t really compete with the HPX3000 (in my eyes) now that I’ve been able to see them both first hand. The HPX3000 is definitely a flagship camera, and now I can see what all the fuss is about. It may be even worth the extra $20,000! I am going to shoot some more with the 2000 over the weekend before I make my final decision, but at least in preliminary testing, the 3000 kicks ass.

I have to agree. The 2000 is a great camera too, but the 3000 is really really nice. 1080psf24N is sweet. No pulldown. i also agree that AVCIntra is a remarkable improvement over DVCPro HD.
Waiting to see what the new Varicams have in store though…
