Interchageable lens system, 2xXLR inputs built in, adjustable viewfinder position...Not good for low light performance, bulky when compared to consumer units, not HD...This product has not yet been reviewed...As a Ciao member you could earn up to £5 with this review...Also, it is important to remember that you will only get high quality playback if you shoot high quality footage......

1) Clean signal: While not as good as something like the Sony DSR 500 its a cleaner signal than the VX2000, PD150, and the Panasonic DVX100a...The design of the button lay out and menus is very good...The one really bad decision was putting the film grain and color bars on the same button...
