JVC Hi-Def camcorder: Like the Panasonic 24fps DVX100, this is going to shake up the DV world all over again. Are Canon and Sony sweating over these? I just hope JVC’s HD format is open and not a repeat of Sony’s almost useless MicroMV format.

My next camcorder will either be Hi-Def or tape-free. Maybe both. And hopefully it will use the Foveon X3 chipset. Lately I’ve been wishing my still camera also shot DV, that would be my dream camera.
