Infoseite // Buying HDV: Canon HV20 or SonyHC7?



Frage von Addie:


Good evening,

After I thank you very helpful and I have been informed of the general tenor was, for my purposes HDV camera to purchase, I have decided that now synonymous actually taken.

Now I am really just a question: what? I liebäugle with the two aforementioned models. Because there are certainly people, one of the cameras has, I would like to know how happy you are.

Actually ¬ 1000 will be my limit and the price - as unfortunately it is - a very high priority. Therefore, this point clear to Canon, since they already in the network for ¬ 950 to acquire. But money is not everything we know now ;-) - the problem is that the Canon HV-20 is still quite young and therefore little test reports or experience, or?

I've the two camera types miser when entered, because of the article where buyers usually with stars will be assessed. Here comes the Canon better off (only one star deduction for the support, for all other categories full 5 stars) than the Sony, however, such reviews should not overestimate synonymous.

Time of any personal touch apart: what points objectively speak for one or another model? I'm in the technical specifications will not know, I've just read that the HV20 is this 25p mode offers - but what exactly does this mean for buyers? Is the 25 frames per second? And this "i" beduetet fields? How do about 25 frames per second, because in comparison to 25 fields from a film? Previously, I had MiniDV halt, as the distinguished because in Comparison to?

And then I had this 1 / 25 sec recording read. That I do not quite understand, I know only from the photograph as exposure time, then the cap will remain at 1 / 25 seconds open to expose the film and then closes again - but at the Camera but is constantly exposed to the shooting?

Well, these are separate issues but again, I really wanted just a little help for the purchase decision ... ;-)

1. I would both cams in hand and test how they "fit". The handling is extremely important.

2. You will be here in the forum Sony fans Canon fans will find us whether the subject can differentiate?

3. What customer service is concerned: I had 3 of DV Canon, two of which had once repair. I have the equipment in person after Willich to Central Europe to the customer service market (40km away). Rapid processing and quick easy repair.

4. Sony Customer Service: Seinetwegen I changed to Canon. The quality and customer-friendly but may have changed.

5. Canon disadvantage: 1 year factory warranty, the rest is for the seller. As the Sonygeregelt, I do not know.

6. Make a checklist of what you need, forgive multiplication points for important things and then you will have an outcome (handling test is not forgotten).

7. Personally, I am synonymous decide for a Canon (HV10), but not because I am a Canon fan (I would prefer to buy Panasonic), but because I want an optical stabilizer (the HC7 synonymous one?), And because I Touch Screen does not like, but direct access to manual features. From the image quality since you can both accept.

The Canon HV20 is since Friday in small quantities, ie a real assessment of users will take some days. When you purchase the Internet should always be synonymous to an original manual and warranty card ensured.

Yes clearly, definitely. "Unseen" with security, I will not buy! I have to look at the Saturn SonyHC5 (I think) in the hand had the HC7 because they had not, she was already quite good in the hand - but the touch screen is not my thing. Der hat mich schon s.einer older Sony MiniDV annoyed by a friend. He thinks it is good. It's a matter of taste.

Yes, she has.

Since I am very curious thing! However, I ask myself: where did the users who already have one, which will come from?

Oja, good reference, thank you! Or there are synonymous always an indication of gray, you should at Panasonic for example, ensure that even the "E" or "EC" stands s.Ende, as far as I know. There's something for Canon or Sonysynonymous?

Oh yes, and a still: someone threw here in the forum the question of whether the editing programs with the 25p mode would be clear as Canon yes "its own standard" or something like that. Do you know what with the standard is meant?

I have found no shop in which the camera is available.

Antwort von Jan:

Hello,

on the roadshow, I had the camera in his hand:

Canon HV20-25p-with-movie-and-look-modi -

I would like the models but rather on the spot test, an accurate judgment.

In Munich gabs goods yet, maybe tomorrow.

In the equipment, they are relatively similar, the super slow motion & Lanc (Sony) and 25 P & AV In (Canon) are so serious differences, optical stabilizer, Micro & Kopfh, man. Tonaussteuerung, HDMI, color bars, zebra have Both.

The Canon is missing but almost 4 mm focal (40 to 43.6 mm) even pros at Sony.

Antwort von Addie:

Super interesting!
Since my election will probably fall on the HV20 - the price is crucial. When dealer in Cologne, it is for 1099 EUR (the HC7 1299, -). When there's Technikdirekt.de it even for 935 EUR, with a year warranty of Canon directly, two years from the Shop ('ve asked).
This means of course I'll only watch live ...

Hi:)

Schwanke I still in my buying decision between the Canon H10 and H20.
The Camera is a long-term video project. It aims particularly at junctions with scooters and motorcycles to be, of course, where the size of the HV10 would be ideal.
Quenching does me, however, the poor low-light feature, because s.and to be synonymous in rooms or in bad weather will be rotated.

Therefore my question s.diejenigen the HV20 already had in their hands:

Where the HV20 in low light auto better images than the HV10, or do you only have a special menu, so that better performance comes?

The question for me is important because the camera for the video project s.viele people borrowed to be little or no experience in dealing with camcorders and have the "Special Settings" for Lowlight probably "would not manage or do not want to had ...

So of the two cams is the HV20 in any case the better choice,

So I am layman and therefore has no "professional look" like you - but I think the Picture of the gas station pretty well! The HV20 which I like better color performance, the HC7 is the sharpness of this better I think (the illuminated lettering above the door, for example).
I picture me a noisy or HC7 the top right, exactly in the dark anymore?

thx for your reply:)

There should be but the HV10 or Canon HV20 of his.
Have now in various American read reviews that the Lowlight Fähgikeit the HV20 is not dramatically improved to be (except in 24p mode) and that only the software should be changed so that picture is slightly better in low light, so no change in actual optical system was made.

Did someone put it directly compared HV10 udn HV20 in Lowlight? :)

Many greetings

Antwort von Jan:

Well then, the American Forum for Canon not informed.

Canon Law in the HV 20 on a new CMOS technology, so the processor, the sensor size is a / the same.

Similar to Canon SLRs get any diode missed a micro lens, it gets more light individual pixels, which is better for the Lowlightqualität effect.

I own the HV 10 Interior view - horribly in outdoor running in top form on this is true. Ich glaub ich muss mal 2 images are purely (synonymous wenns my stock images are simple, and Wolfgang's test clearly mature & professional is)

The HV 10 is once again under the HC 7, and the HC 7 Picture at 20 lux yes I linked - completely black & noisy at 1 / 50, f 1.8 18 DB.

Because we do not just lay people and professionals! ;-)
So I can only speak for myself: if you as a layman does not know exactly what a close eye on you, ie what exactly are the criteria, the recording is good or bad, then you look at just the Overall impression of the image.

And because this order lengths is better than the Lowlightaufnahmen that I of my Panasonic NV-GS 22 am accustomed, I found it only once good. And I see there is a difference in the detail outlined in the shop - but for me it was not so insanely large for a trained eye Filmmakers are perhaps the worlds!

This (surely synonymous subjective) sense but it is wonderful here in the forum to understand:

Sun, and now tell me why MIR dwarf because everything should be noticed immediately! ;-)
What I'm saying is: who is not intensely with these things and here is continually synonymous of 24p, 25p, 50i, etc. reads, and does not know what this exactly means and how it is affected (I'm still searching) , which is synonymous ever so slightly overlooked. Therefore, in my opinion goes a beginning synonymous for his feeling good picture compared to the same professional would totally reject.

That is exactly when as fine a musician Details / accents, etc. from a song heraushört. Since the layman just says: "If not me!" If he gets it in more detail and it is concentrated hinhört, he remembers what the other speaks. (and even that does not always).

Again and again this harrowing uncertainty about whom to trust? Their own verdict, because I would say. Without the technical specs in detail to assess, this ruling is obviously a bit weak justification.
Synonymous But a miscarriage is not doomsday, because of what Rob Slashcam on the higher price class says:

"rob" wrote: And again to the spoilsport for all pixel counter "to play: Good movies are not of the cams, but of the people who work with them, done. Was already very often said - is no less true and should not therefore be repeated infinitely often.

Personally I find the top class of the HDV cams so close together in terms of image quality that real selection criteria clearly Handling, Post-Pro workflow, stability, etc. are s.wenigsten and whether Cam 2% more or less sharp features. And these are much more important criteria of nunmal situation situation, a team of team of Project to Project diverse ... Appropriate technology-blow tests the differences in proportions that are not in proportion to the true value of a cam is - the problem is: there is no other objective testing. The best test lab is still a cameraman / woman with a lot of experience. ;-)


is synonymous for the small things. There are no worlds between Son and Can. So buy the camera, which one would love to s.ehesten.

I have a few clips on rapidshare.com uploaded to hire someone interested in the quality.
Everything is filmed in the automatic mode with ois at (forgotten from making) and from the tripod and 1080p.
there are no great shots, but only quickly filmed the test.

Antwort von Jan:

Hello,

I have my statement a little perspective. The HR 20 is not a better length, the difference is only real weakness in visible light. Had little time a week (working & shooting) and therefore could not constitute pure images, but the shots did s.PC seen.

The reason why I was in business a customer is HV 10 were returned (noisy interior shots) in Comparison to a SonyHi8 was that it was an expensive 3000-4000 DM 1 / 3 "device, with relatively few pixels on the sensor. What a snooze light Picture man with a 3 per CCD 1 / 3 "Camera with only 450,000 pixels per hinbekommen can, yes you can see in the VX 2100 / PD 170th

Now hold 2 million to 1 / 2, 7 "CMOS distributed - Pixelwahn ...
Although the pixels in HDV have been necessary.

The HV 20-25 P mode can be very difficult to explain that you have to see themselves.

All previously visited Modis P (ie, half or zusammengemanschte Canon Modis F) provide for completely different from me. Even with a JVC GR PD 1 I found the picture differently.

Film to another "exotic" look in their recordings have to be a look at the HV 20, and for only slightly more than 1000 ¬. professionals are of course the nichtvorhandenen "combs" of a half value.

Mich nervt it synonymous if users here want to maintain professional standards, without ever with a camera in this class to have filmed. These are the users themselves mercilessly Lenses talk badly (distortion, sharpener losses and the edges in the WW and telephoto) and ¬ 300-700 for the cameras. If a Digibeta filmmaker sells his work, that does it is quite correct. I think it is grossly exaggerated, probably pure Profilierlust. Robs ruling is absolutely correct!
