fujinon

i use “fujinon”, good quality picture, but expensive
i have “century” wide angle, terrible…sell for low price..

[Piotr Niemcewicz]

i try mount my wide angle 2/3 (canon 12×6.5 with extender) to my 1/2 sony dsr-300

no good idea, on borders lenses lost sharp, very difficult to use, after that i sell dsr-300 and buy dsr-570

but now i think about buy wide angle 1/2 for my jvc 201

please give me raport for results your experiment

[Piotr Niemcewicz]

jvc250 or sony dsr NOT have 4:2:2 color sampling, only 4:2:0 in PAL mode

jvc have 1/3 matrix, DSR 2/3

if you have 4:2:2, try another way:

JVC on component port makes 1080i (or 720p) in 4:2:2 color space
of course on HD-SDI its same (SDI its digital componet)

i think, SONY DSR-450 have on SDI 4:2:2 sample rate

You have connect this camcorder to another recording device and record to external device
ideal its NANOFLASH device

but better quality (high chroma sampling) it some difficulty when you keying and cut blue screen (in this case – DV family better use green screen)

i have some camcorders and also JVC 201 and DSR-570 with wideangle lenses.
Sony (in SD modes of course) is better.

i use CityTek batteries – low prices high campacity (China productions)

iDX is very very good batteries and very very high prices.

iDX is low weight, good for JVC camcorder

i use iDX in local TV station, always take digital Beta and 2 idx batteries (and marge this batteries)

I use this model for few years. Many trouble, many problems, its no good idea buy JVC. Picture is low quality, sound is low quality, (soundchip in camera is very low quality), HDV1 makes many trouble to Avid Media Composer (v2.8), maybe v3.0 or 3.5 is better (i try in few days, i must reinstalation system and make upgrade).
I back to DSR-570WSP and I use JVC only as second cam.

[Piotr Niemcewicz]

ok.. well

JVC working good in DV SD mode, AMC seeing camera, You set capture machine in Deck Configuration, JVC or Generic.. and works, but

in HDV mode don’t seeing camera

i have 201 model and don’t work in HDV

i trying with VTR BR-HD50 and… DV SD good work, HDV… not

i try only 720p/50, maybe work 720p/25
