What Sony? There isn’t one that gives you 24p at this price range. Only other option would be an XL2. You asked in the DVX100 forum. It’s a great cam- you can’t go wrong…

I’ve good luck with SDX900 DVCPRO50 keying as well. Bottom line is that it and Digibeta have a very low relative amount of compression- 3.3:1 compared to DV, most compressed HD formats, etc.

It really depends on how well it was taken care of. Questions to ask are was it stored in a hard case. Were only Professional MQ tapes used- no other tape brands. Was the head cleaner run regularly. Was it used in a dusty environment. How often has it been serviced. Was it ever used as an editing feeder deck.
500 hours is very heavy usage but this is a very hardy camera so it comes down to the care it got.

Still if you’re one of the four people who hasn’t given into the DVX100 side this is sweeet.

It’s pretty simple- you make an animation for each ball shooting off and then set up the main menu to jump to the appropriate animation once the selection is made.
So- you have the main version of the menu with the balls sitting still that loops. Then 4 seperate tracks- one for each ball movement and you jump to the appropriate one when the selection is made. In effect it’s a jump cut edit but since the balls are in the same spot in the moving menu no one will notice this.

Ha- arm and a leg for a jib arm- thass funny. I’ve used the cobra jib and it’s pretty tasty for the price.

You have to author DVDs if you want to play them on DVD players- Adobe Encore, Sonic DVDit etc. Otherwise you’re just using the DVD-R as a removable hard drive.

AFAIK those will ship when the cam does.
