Hi all

Does anyone know if any 1920x1080p60 samples recorded with a green or blue screen ?

I want to test some keying before buying ..

THNX in advance

Cheers.

I don't own this camera/have samples.. But I can tell you that the zebra stripes feature (which shows areas of exposure) is extremely helpful in getting a good key in showing if the shot is evenly exposed; (an important characteristic in getting a good chroma key/green screen).

The HD2000 has zebra stripes, but many consumer camcorders do not have this feature.

Good to hear, i will read about the features later

Right now i'm thinking of the sanyo or a Samsung-SC-HMX20 (http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/Samsung-SC-HMX20-Camcorder-Review-35416.htm) with a blackmagic intensity card

Too bad the bm does not support 1920p60

What do you think chroma wise, 4:2:2 uncompressed 8 bit ( read that the last 2 bits of the bm are null so not 10 bit ) vs sanyo 4:2:0.

For now NEED SAMPLE.

I don't think that Samsung has the zebra stripes..but you can check.

If you've ever done green screen before.. you have to light the screen evenly in order to get a good key; it's not easy.

I was saying that the HD2000 has the zebra stripes, which will show you exposure areas before even shooting....without it, you would have to find out afterward when trying to key the footage.

Anyway, if it were up to me, besides the zebra striping, I would go for the HD2000 just because it's newer technology.
