HVX first Impressions
I had the chance to spend some time with the HVX yesterday thanks to Mike at HDforIndies.
We didn’t really have a chance to run it through it’s paces, so I was only able to get a ‘first impression.’If anyone is interested in my kneejerk reactions to this great little camera – check it out at http://www.hdforindies.com

I second that!Very informative.
One question. You say you’ve shot on Varicam. How does the mosquito noise in the shadows compare to one? I know the image won’t be anywhere near as sharp but just curious about the shadows….

To be honest, I don’t think it would be fair for me to make too much of a comparison.
I had the HVX for about 3 hours, and was pretty limited in what we could do with it.
It was nighttime, and we were in an underlit house.I’m very familiar with how the DVX would react to such an environment, but everytime I’ve shot with the Varicam it’s been on large controlled shoots, usually in a studio (so lighting was never much of an issue).
So, I won’t stretch myself to make those comparisons – I don’t want to start any rumors about how the HVX would do against a Varicam. People will take a statement like that and run with it.
