[Barry Green] “when you’re in FILM CAM mode, the shutter speed is expressed in terms of shutter angle degrees, and can vary from about 5 degrees all the way to 350 degrees.”
So, you can always choose 180 degrees shutter with all frame rates?
What other Cam modes it has? VIDEO CAM mode? -
[Barry Green] “I don’t think Panasonic intends to sell very many P2 cards anyway — two or three per camera, max.”
I do believe that panny intends to sell quite a lot of p2 cards.
Most of hvx200 buyers are propably getting 2 x 8 GB this year, maybe 2 x 16 GB next year and 2 x 32 GB after that and so on…
(After that there should be hvx300 on the market with increased resolution in viewfinder & lcd and + new jpeg2000 codecs + 1/2″ one-chipper ccd/cmos + hd-sdi in/out + …, hopefully 🙂 -
Will Panasonic release more info about ccd in the future or are you trying to keep these secrets forever?
-
Well, if Panny promised to deliver q4/2005, maybe they like to keep their promises…

But all Centrino’s do have pc-card slot. Isn’t the new ibook going to be Centrino?
-
Bus power is for usb only and unfortunately it seems to be that handling usb-disks didn’t fit into hvx’s program memory.

I’d say that the “breakthrough” was that cf-cards got fast enough to record 100Mbps.
If panny wouldn’t lowered the price there would have been cf-p2-adaptors on sale very soon and then panny wouldn’t have sold very many p2 cards. -
You guys are lucky; with “ntsc” model you can shoot both for theathrical release (24fps) and for television (30fps) with same camera. People in PAL countries needs two cameras for that.

[Barry Green] “the internals of the HVX are running Linux”
Hmm, interesting…
Linux is licenced under Gnu GPL and if panny has made any alterations to it, they should publish the source code like Nokia did after releasing 770. -
So, in p2 mode tape drive doesn’t exist, but in tape mode p2 do exist?
Can you transfer material from tape to p2 when in tape mode?
