5.0 out of 5 stars A must for the budding Spielberg, 22 Aug 2007
By Tim Bentley (Shetland, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This offering from Sony is a great addition to their range and an absolute godsend for low budget and amateur film makers. The standard definition DV mode is marvellous with 16:9 anamorphic stored movies transferring easily into widescreen editors such as Pinnacle, Avid and Final Cut (Express and Pro). The 1080i HDV capture is better still (unsurprisingly!), and the built in stereo microphones produce a good audio capture too. The battery life with the standard battery is not fantastic so I would recommend the NP970 extended life batteries as an immediate purchase, and while the audio is good I would suggest the use of the shoe mount and the purchase of a decent shotgun mike such as a Rode or Sennheiser unit.

Using the camera is a dream with a decently sized LCD panel and good colour viewfinder. You are though limited in some areas - watch the white balance when filming under mercury lights or the dreaded neon strip lights. The Auto setting is often better than the manual. When capturing footage to an NLE like Final Cut, I would recommend that you set your output to DV or HDV as appropriate rather than leaving it on auto - I had the occasional glitch streaming onto the computer where it failed to detect the format properly.

The weight of the unit is fine, the 20x optics excellent and the slow wide and tight control on the handle is very useful when going 'hand held'. I would urge you to consider a wide angle lens as an extra, and to get yourself a decent tripod to properly steady your quality cam. Additionally, the audio input from external source is 3.5mm minijack so you might want to think about a XLR converter - I used the Beachtek unit compatible with the FX7 and the older Sony FX1.

A great camera and a great starter for making professional quality movies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Who needs a Z1?, 19 Dec 2007
I've had a PDX10 for about 4 years now and had access to an A1 (Previous to that i'd been using the TRV900) and was thinking of upgrading to an A1 which is a similar price, has similar features and used the same batteries. However while looking for an A1 I stumbled upon the HDR-FX7E on the Sony site.

Feature wise this camera is very impressive you have a much faster lens than the A1, ND (Neutral Density) filter, 6 buttons for your custom settings AND that super smooth record function. The FX7 has lost the touchscreen and put the transport and other features back under the LCD (I hadn't had any problems with the PDX10 touchscreen but I know that some weren't fans) It's solid and feels well balanced when using it Handheld.

For the indie film-makers out there you'll need to work on the sound acquisiton, headphone jack only. The one thing i'll miss are the XLR inputs on the PDX10 and A1 but all is not lost! (See the 1st review for notes on the Beachtek)

Another thing to note is that in Sony's more recent products (the last 2 years approx) the headphone output has been reduced. This is to protect your hearing. While i commend Sony for thinking about my welfare - I don't think anyone who buys a video camera is planning on playing music on it at full blast for extended periods of time - it DOES mean that monitoring the sound out of the camera is actually quite difficult as the headphone levels at full volume are pretty much the same as the ambient sound which might require the purchase of a decent set of noise canceling headphones.

I really recommend sitting down with the camera plugged into a monitor and playing around with the custom settings (the sharpness is set way too high and exposes every blemish on the skin) Also, when you get a Sony out of the box it really rewards the time you spend setting it up. (Especially the LCD viewfinder's Brightness / Colour level settings.)

For those of us that can't quite afford the Z1 or the FX1, this is a very, very good option. With thought given to the lighting, the results i achieved with the A1 were stunning and that had just the one CMOS Chip with this 3 chip, fast lens and level of picture control. I won't be looking anywhere else.
