Choosing Your Professional Camcorder - Sony Hdv Camcorder Review
Professional videographers often depend on having the best equipment to enable them to do the best at their job. Whether it's filming nature, wedding videos, broadcast videos or event coverage the quality must always be up to standard. The best way to ensure this is to go for a quality brand such as Sony, and carry out research on the models to make sure you get one that is suitable for the purposes you will be using it for. When it comes to professional video equipment there are plenty of options to choose from, but this article will identify two of the best to see which will be best for you.
Sony HDV Camcorders
A choice that stands out to anyone after professional camcorders is the Sony HVR-A1E which offers High Definition quality at an affordable price, as well as being compact, lightweight and with many more useful specifications. Including the Carl Zeiss Lens, the ability to capture still images and store these photos on the memory stick, in addition to having a touch panel LCD monitor that can be used at the same time as the viewfinder. With all of these functions and more it's hard to wonder how you could go wrong. Compare this to other options in the range of HDV video cameras available to make sure you make the best choice for your needs - do you need an HDV camcorder, or would a DVCam Camera be good enough?
Specialist Camcorders
So how do you work out if you need an HDV camcorder or a DVCam Camcorder? Well, time to consider the options available with each. HDV stands for High Definition Video and enables a much higher level of quality and it also supports non-HD video which enable you to store your high quality original recording and then use the same camcorder to create a video that can be used in any standard digital video editing suites. If you're after a less expensive choice however, then you may be better off with the enhanced version of a Digital Video Camera - the DVCam, which will not have the same excellent quality as an HDV Camera, but is greatly advanced than the previous DV equipment and overall a good mid-level specialist camcorder.

Wide conversion lens's?
I have a sony hvr z1 professional camcorder and it has a 72mm lens diameter, i found it really hard finding a wide angle converter for it for a low price. now my question is would a 72mm wide angle converter for a panasonic slr camera be compatible. the thread is the same so i think it will physically fit onto my camcorder but will my camera be able to 'see' through it ok and give the desired wide angle effect, or is there a difference between wide angle converters for camcorders and ones for stills SLR cameras.
Thanks.
the main feature of SLR cameras is the that the lens can be changed, so normally you would get a separate lens for wide angle work and not a "converter". also a 72mm filter diameter is awfully large for a SLR lens, the normal lens is usually about 50 - 60 mm filter size. 72 mm is the filter size for medium format 220 film.
my guess is the panasonic has a non-removable lens that is a 20x zoom. if they make the adaptor for that, then it should work for video as well. 72 mm is about 3 inch diamter.
