    David,
    Thanks for the info! At work I’ve mostly shot with large and small Sony cameras, and now full size Hitachi’s with hard drives. Each camera has its idiosyncracies but I’ve always been able to depend on the camera to record properly. Though the JVC is exactly what I want for shooting with, it seems unsettling to always wonder if you’re accurately recording what you’re shooting. Maybe I’m exagerating the problem but when you’re on a tight schedule for a client it seems risky. Hmmmmm, I may have to take another look at the EX1. Thanks for your input! This forum has been extremely valuable!

    I am considering buying either the HD200 or a Sony EX1. I’ve had an HD200 for a couple of days to demo. The image is great and I prefer a shoulder mount camera so I’m leaning towards the HD200. However I’ve run into several major dropouts during playback. I’m guessing I’m using a different brand of tape than previous users. Can you depend on tape, or are most users using a Firestore and avoiding the dropout problem? How reliable are the newer Firestores? Thanks!
