Response to Any new word on JVC's GY-DV500?

from Perry Auch (smoothoperator007@Juno.com)
Ya, I own one of these cameras and am very happy. The only thing that gets annoying is that because the camera is still somewhat new and the XL 1 is still so popular; it is often harder to find articles and sites online that give info on lense gear and stuff. The camera is by far the best thing in its price range!!! I have shot with both the XL1 and the dv500, and while the XL1 has pretty good quality, the dv500's bayonet mounted lense is just the best thing since sliced bread!!! I can't say enough. Yes you are going to pay more for this thing, but it would be a bargan at twice the price!!! If you care so much about the Frame Movie Mode option of cannon or sony cameras, I suggest you use a less expensive GL1 as a second camera. With its smooth zoom and crisp easy manual focus, the JVC gy dv500 is the cameraman's camera!!!!
