Tough, Reliable, great optics

Written on 28 February 2008

In this day and age why buy an older technology CCD HDV camcorder when there are others with newer CMOS optics? Well right now, the CMOS technology is good but it isn't great, especially in low light. The older triple CCD equipped cameras like the HDR-FX1 and the HVR-Z1 work better in lower light than the newer FX7s.

I've had an FX1 for a while now and must say that I'm very happy with my purchase. The quality of material I've shot is excellent using Sony HDV tapestock and the playback is top end. The camera manual controls are a dream with an excellent zoom ring close enough to the focus ring for the nimble fingered to use one handed, but far enough apart for a separate focus puller to use without getting in the way. The weight of the unit is good, not too much for hand held use. I like the top mounted view screen like the Z1's and I've found the on board mic to be surprisingly good.

I would suggest the purchase of a NP970 (or equivalent) extended life battery - why do Sony ship the orderinary one at all? along with a decent tripod. I've used bith Vinten and Manfrotto tripods with this camera and to be honest can't decide which I like the best, but make sure you get one with a good fluid head suitable for HDV camcorders. The audio in is a 3.5mm minijack but a Beathtek adapter will add a couple of XLR connectors without the expense of having to stump up for a Z1 camera instead.

A great camcorder and I'll have to be seriously impressed with something else before I replace it.

Some time later...

Written on 09 March 2006

This is a follow up to my main review below. After a year of usage I've at last got hold of Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 and its native HDV support. In other words I can use Windows Media Player to view my FX1 captures in full 1920x1080 resolution for the first time and it's glorious. I've been watching some night time footage I shot in Tokyo last year and the ability of the FX1 to work in low light and to capture the intense colours of the neon signs is amazing. The clarity of the images is everything that I hoped for and fully justifies the cost of the camcorder. A friend said, when viewing my samples: "It's like looking at a fairly good photo... and then it moves!!!"
Finally: bear in mind that the FX1 is only implementing 75% of the 1080i standard resolution (anamorphic 1440 x 1080) because of the storage limitations of the mini-DV cassettes. I'm amazed by the FX1 output so full broadcast 1080i will be stupendous. The future is coming...!

Desirable and efficient...

Written on 10 August 2005

I spent three weeks in April 2004 lugging one of these around Japan (in its dedicated SONY bag which I highly recommend) and had no difficulties at all. The camcorder performed in great heat and light and recorded some superb images. The zoom is marvellous and the autofocus staggering: I fully zoomed on a bee (and then pulled slowly back to reveal a buddhist temple in Gion Kyoto) and the camera locked onto the tiny bee with no difficulties. If only my Canon 20D SLR would do that! I've not yet seen any HD images from my camera (I need the relevant kit and that's to come) but the converted standard DV is great. I DID see an FX-1 hooked up to a hi-definition monitor in the SONY building in Tokyo and it was amazing so no worries there. My one and only complaint is that the time lapse facility (press the record button in lapse mode and only 7 frames are recorded) can't be automated: I'd love to leave the camera on its own recording 7 frames every minute (for example) but its not possible.
In conclusion: a superb camera for the price in standard DV mode but amazing with the addition of its HDV capability.

A truly amazing camera

Written on 09 March 2005

Rarely have I been so impressed with any product so immediately. From the moment that you open the box the quality is apparent. Bearing in mind the fact that this is a fairly complex piece of equipment, it is incredibly easy to use.

I have used mine in conjunction with Apple's imovie HD, and editing and importing clips is an absolute cinch. All I would suggest is that any Mac users make sure their equipment meets the minimum requirements, otherwise performance may be a little slow manipulating HD clips.

All in all this is a fantacstic camera, and is clearly the future of video.

Wow ! What a camera

Written on 01 December 2004

The quality is first class. The controls are amazing and the excitement factor so large you just want to go off and make a movie like the big boys.

It might get some looks on a holiday but I intend to take it on mine and I know I'll take the best home movie ever, I can't wait.

I bought my first "portable" video camera and separate video recorder in 1979. Yes that's correct before most people had even a home video. That said I have seen lots of changes since going from Beta, VHS, Video 8, Hi8, DV and now HDV. In all those years I have always wanted to have a video camera that is "just like the TV stations use". Today I think I have that camera, the Sony HDR-FX1. Sony calls it a "Handycam" which, if you are expecting something quite small, you'll find is a bit of a joke. People will notice this camera! It looks the business and should get you into most places without too much explaining that you are there to take "the" video.

Having owned a JVC HD1 and Panasonic GS400 in the last year I have seen the best recent camcorders but this is different. The Sony can be switched to work with your existing software, DV inputs on the DVD recorders and ordinary DV tapes but ... when the day comes for you to move to a Plasma Screen and upgrade your free Movie Maker 2 software to an HD editing package - wow!
