Q. I'm looking for a good quality HD camcorder to use in independent feature-length filmmaking. Several action shots/scenes appear in my screenplay so I need a camcorder that will capture the fast pace of the movie. Would like some advice from people who are in the business and have professional experience with cinema-like production quality cameras.
A. To begin with, a prosumer camcorder will not be a "cinema-like production quality camera".
A "cinema-like production quality camera" would be in the Panavision, CineAlta or Arriflex environment or maybe drop to a Red One or Silicon Imaging camera...
For action shots in the prosumer environment stick with least compression. Most likely HDV, but better with XDCAM, HDCAM or DVCPRO HD formats.
So... prosumer HDV points you to the Sony HDR-FX1000. Above this gets you to pro, below this is consumer.
