so im lookin around but id like to hear about some cameras that people are like for skiing pretty much follow shots and everything so looking for good stabilizer and picture\

thanks guys
 
I am curious about the HF S100 also.

I got a guy looking to trade me that camera for about $550-600 worth of audio equipment. Seems suspicious, but I want to know if its a good camera.
 
do you want a camera to just press record and get good picture or do you actually want to get into videography and learn all the settings and stuff? if you just want good quality with no manual controls have a HV30 and if you want something with lots of manual controls get the dvx. a used or refurbished dvx will probably be around your price range

i have a pansaonic sd 100 im looking to sell, it is so new i havent even uploaded footage shot at most 30 minutes with it, need the money so im sad to have to sell it, its around 800+ new on line now from most reputiable sites how bout 700 shipped
 
has anyone heard anything about the hfs11 10 or 100? the vids on yotube are so nice but just wanna know for snow
 
You spelled it wrong, and if he is considering a HV40 then he might as well get the HV30 because it is cheaper.
 
The hv series are tape cameras and the hfs series are all flash based. If you are considering going with an hfs series camera then make sure your editing program and computer can handle avchd.
 
My friend has an hfs100 so i can tell you a bit about it.Nice camera big threads (58mm) so you can put a really good lens on it. The Low Light is pretty good but the problem is the AVCHD which you need a beast of a computer. He had to buy a brand new PC with a quad core processor so make sure you have a good computer.
Personally I used the hfs100 and the hv30 and I like the hv30 more. For me though i don't have a great computer so the hv30 was right for me. If anything I would just go hv30 and get a mic and a nice lens.
 
I'm looking into a hv30 or hv40 but I cant seem to find the hv30 anywhere

Know of any canadian webstites that carry it?
