Adam Wilt's Commentary on a pre-release Sony EX1 camera 

Cinematographer.com - The Daily Cinematography Resource

Our friend and fellow deep-geek (I mean that in the best possible way) Adam Wilt posted his thoughts on the new Sony EX1 camcorder. It is that new one that is their attempt to take down the Panasonic HVX200 in the under $10K, solid state recording camcorder category. Image quality and codec sound good, lens controls sound good, but ergonomics have issues. Read on for Adam's breakdown.

This is the camera for us. We are picking one up this week. I'm a massive RED fan and all, but my hunch is that for the majority of indies who read this blog, this price range is the most sensible / plausible.

P.S. check out this footage. EX1+ 35mm lenses (Letus adapter) + Magic Bullet Looks.
