HVX-200 and Varicam Performance

Correct. The HVX has a setup setting for P2 also, for 0 or 7.5. But it only affects the analog outputs. On the card it’s always recorded at zero, but on the analog output you can choose to have 0 or 7.5.

Get the most from your DVX camera. The DVX Book and DVX DVD are now available on ebay and at Amazon (https://www.fiftv.com/db) -
“The camera captures the native DVCPROHD codec in both 720p and 1080- but your frame size is not correct. The 4:2:2 1080 DVCPROHD codec is actually 1280x 1080. not the HDV size of 1440×1080 @ 4:2:0 that you quote”
Gary – I was referring to the HDV capured at 1080 x 1440 then converted to 720p DVCPRO 100.
In that case some of my footage originated from the FX1 looked better or as good as the
HVX footage. -
the type of noise I’ve noticed on HVX footage –when i have noticed it– is very small fine “mosquito noise”.
In all these noise discussions no one brings up the camera’s sharpness setting. My theory (which is just that until I can do some hands on tests myself) is that adjusting the camera sharpness setting may well get rid of this noise or at least cut it down to virtually unnoiceable levels. This is assuming, of course, proper lighting of the scene.
Barry or anyone else with some real experience with this camera: any thoughts on sharpness setting affecting noise?
