Unlike the HVX200, the EX1 allows variable frame rates in 1080p, 50Hz/60Hz switchable operation, and full-resolution 1920×1080 sensors with full-resolution recording. Like the HVX200, it offers true progressive scan including 24p, variable frame rates up to 60p in 720-line mode, and two solid-state card slots, allowing hot-swapping while recording. The EX1 is Sony’s response to Panasonic’s HVX200: an affordable variable-frame-rate HD handheld camcorder with solid-state recording. It is awkward to handhold, some controls are hard to use, and it lacks SD recording, but its excellent pictures, comprehensive image tweaks, and pin-sharp LCD make it a compelling HD camcorder. The camera records using long-GOP MPEG-2 on dual SxS solid-state memory cards, and provides a 10-bit SDI output with embedded audio and timecode. It resolves a true 1920×1080 image shoots both interlaced and progressive records 1920×1080, 1440×1080 (HDV-compatible), and 1280×720 formats and offers variable frame rates from 1 fps to 30 fps (1080p) or 60fps (720p). The US$6500 (street price) Sony PMW-EX1 is a six-pound, high definition Handycam with three 1/2″ CMOS chips.
