My Nephew has a Wedding Video and Photography studio in Viet Nam. He loves this camera. His video quality in 480 is much better than his previous Camera’s and the HD is a definite plus and future proofing. This is a popular camera for higher end Video pro’s in Viet Nam and is priced accordingly at around $4,000. 00 for local purchase.

The Sony HVR- HD1000u video camcorder is perfect, 5 out of 5 stars. It’s light weight and well balanced for its size. I also own a SR-11 handycam that over time can get heavy and hard to hold up. With the Sony 1000u the weight is on your sholder. The sound and video quality is just as good as the Sony SR-11 if not better. The plastic feel that others may complain about isn’t that bad, once you use it for a while you’ll understand why. It to keep the weight of the video camcorder to a minimum. The night shot works great, if you move camera to fast it will take a few seconds to focus. The manual states that while in night shot mode you need to manualy focus the camera for a quicker responce time. The battery runs for only 2 hours so you may want to pick up a longer lasting one. Editing HDV software is a must have and make sure it’s HDV compatible. We use Sony Vegas Movie Studio 9 platinum and it works great.

This camcorder is a excellent value for the money. It’s size gives it a very professional look and handling quality. It’s signal output options and quality are much more than I expected from a unit of this price range. Even though it is very menu intensive to get to most of the features. I’d recommend it to prosumers as a beginning to professional videography.
