Sony HVR-A1U HDV Camcorder
DMN Product Review: by Douglas Spotted Eagle
Bringing its fourth HDV camera to market, Sony is about to start shipping the second in their professional offerings for the HDV shooter. The HVR-A1U is the latest addition to the HDV market, and is a dynamite camcorder both for DV shooters and HDV shooters. Good things come in small packages. Palm-sized, the HVR-A1U doesn't look like what it is; a power-packed camcorder with professional features. Although this camcorder is on the same body frame as the consumer-oriented HDR-HC1E , the similarities end there. Although the HDR-HC1E camera is a very impressive camcorder for the price, by the time you add a Studio Devices or Beachtek device, an external mic, better hood, you'll be at the same cost as the A1U, and that's without the other special features found on this camcorder. read more...
