Camcorder Review: Sony DSR-PDX10 DVCAM

 

The professional Sony DSR-PDX10 is, in every important way, identical to the consumer DCR-TRV950, which received a very positive review from us in the October 2002 issue (read it at www.videomaker.com). The cameras have the same three CCDs, the same...

XLR audio adapter and microphone ; Compact size ; 16:9 widescreen mode

Default audio set to 12bit

The XLR audio capabilities make this compact camera a serious choice for professionals on the go.

Good, Small Camcorder

 

(This review is based substantially on an article I wrote for the August 6, 2003 issue of TV Technology magazine.) A couple of years ago, I marveled at the size and capability of the Sony DSR-PD100, a three-chip DV and DVCAM (25 Mbps) camcorder with ...

3-CCD imaging chips ; looks great in bright light ; FireWire (i.Link) connection

Quirky manual lens focus ; average in dim light

Cost effective 16:9 DVCAM shoots brilliant video/audio in good light.

 

I have been shooting with the PDX10 for about 4 months now, and I absolutely love this camcorder. The video is brilliant, the audio is exceptional. The 16:9 is the best around under however many thousands of dollars. Though the low light performance ...

Fantastic video with lownoise, exceptional audio, real 16:9, compact size, beautiful LCD/ B&W VF.

heavy vertical smear, some ill placed controls.

Excellent Prosumer Videocam!

 

When my little Sony PC5 palmcorder went into the shop for it's 3rd repair (after 4 years of abuse), I decided it was time for a new rig. I'd been eyeing the Panasonic DVX100 as the replacement so I could start doing some idie stuff and even a music...

3 CCD lenes, native 16x9 mode, manual adjustments for most things, exception picture

heavy for 1 hand

Great camera in a small package

 

The low light sensitivity isn't as good as the PD150 and VX2000, but the fact that it handles 16:9 not by banding off part of the chip, but by making 4:3 the zoomed in image, it gives a better widescreen shot than any other prosumer camera I've seen....

XLR adapters miniDV and miniDVCAM

Low light not as good as PD150, VX2000
