DVL-Digest 482 - Postings: Index JVC GY-DV500 PAL? Steadicam-like devices JVC GY-DV500 PAL? - "Perry" The pictures straight out of the box look very good, but to an old timer used to Betacam pictures there are 2 obvious differences: 1) The saturation is pretty high. The camera has a Color Matrix (which defaults to 'on') which gives this high saturation and is supposed to appeal to the videography market. You can turn the Matrix off in the menus which gives a much less garish picture. 2) The default 'Detail' is pretty high. This is very user dependent and will also be effected by the final target media. Personally speaking, for material staying on DV or bumped to another pro format, I would switch the 'DTL. FREQUENCY' to 'HIGH' and turn the 'DETAIL' level down a notch or two.

This works surprisingly well and is MUCH easier to use than the gimbal type units. I bought mine after experimenting with a folded tripod, but a well balanced SteadyTracker is much more flexible and can do many wondrous things! You do need quite strong arms to use it for the longer shots, but I'm 55 and no Charles Atlas so it's not a big deal.
