Isn't this just about the ENG camera that has been announced for some time now? I could most certainly be wrong.

Yes, at NAB JVC was showing an early, non-functional mockup of the next HDV cam, ENG-style. They were unwilling to talk many specifics about the cam except to promise it would have 2/3" CCD's and support 24p.

If it had 24p, and a Cine-look mode, this camera could be the new Sherrif of Indietown for low (not that low) budget film makers.

Yeah, I don't know that much about lenses for 2/3" cameras, but with a couple of decent primes a rig like this could be everything an indie filmmaker would ever need.

Anyone want to run down a list of cost-effective lens options for something like this?

Cost effective? 2/3rd-inch? Bwa ha ha ha haaaa...

Okay, your basic choices are Canon and Fujinon, but there are others...

Here's the Canon broadcast lens site.

And here's the Fujinon broadcast lens site.

Prices range from just under $3,000 to nearly $50,000 (although there is one Fuji 2/3 at B&H for $1,500). For a detailed list of options, visit our sponsor B&H and navigate to Home < Professional Video < Production < Lenses & Lens Accessories < Lenses < 2/3" Lenses, sort by price, low to high. Hope this helps,

Heh...OK, OK...got any idea how much Canon's FJs series HD primes sell for? I could get a lot of mileage out of the 9mm and the 24mm as a really stripped-down set of primes. Let me guess, they're $25k or so each?

Yeah, Chris - that's cold. Funny, but cold...Actually, JVC used to have some pretty reasonable lenses budled with the DV500. They currently list the low end at around $1800 for a 16:1 Canon. Of course, that's for a 1/2" lens. The 2/3" lens on the D-9 camera will start at around $4,000. Yipee!

That's for non-HD stuff.
