Hi Alister,
Just wondering if you intend doing a review on the new XAVC camera update for the PMW 300 or 400. It would be interesting to get your take on what the addition of this Codec will have on these xdcams.
Cheers
Geoff
If I get time I will. XAVC should bring a small improvement in image quality, but don’t expect miracles. It will only be small.
Hi Alister ,
I Just updated to the XAVC intra 100mb Codec on my PMW 300 and noticed their is no in camera slomo ,DO you know if the next upgrade will support slomo .At present to use slomo i have to reformat camera and card back to the XDCAM codec,which is a real hassle if you are in a hurry.I have talked to Sony Australia but no reply as yet.
regards Rusty
Sorry I don’t know.
hi Alister,
If you had the choice of shooting either XDCAM HD422 or XAVC Long 50, which one would you choose and why?
Best, Peter
XAVC-L50 every time. It’s a much more efficient codec so has fewer compression artefacts and grades better.
When will 200mbps release in india? 100mbps works really very good and waiting for next update
200Mb/s is for 50p and 60p and the PMW300 and PMW400 only go up to 30fps.
