Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $6250.00 from ECI Video, Dallas

Summary:

It's a nice, well-built camera, but it is running a consistent 1/2 to 3/4 stop hot when in any of the auto modes. We're having to shoot everything full manual, including manual iris. Bummer....

Strengths:

Well-built, with the most durable transport mach going. It also has a first-rate imaging section.

Weaknesses:

The shoulder dip is way to flat. The camera does not balence all that well because of that.

Similar Products Used:

Sopny DV-Cam and Panasonic DVC-pro
