Video review of JVC GY-HM 100
I was out all day filming with it. Very impressed. Bit fiddly at times but I kind of expect that from these small cameras, but the image is really good. Will have the video up by Friday night.
In the meantime here is a shot of me filming "guerilla" style. I went out with no tripod, just a baby cinesaddle and the camera. |

That little camera and CineSaddle blend right into the sidewalk and surroundings.
The moose size patch of red just above the camera also moves attention away from the lens. |

You have to go out tonight and shoot with lo-lux at 0dB gain. It's kinda cool.

Philip,
Can you please please show some meaningful low light footage? Also: Did you get our hands on a production model or is it still a pre-production cam? Thanks, Matthias |

i'm really looking forward to your review. i've been reading the posts in dvinfo on the new JVCs and Panasonics and your blog (which is great by the way) and i'm really hoping this is the camera for me. my Sony PD170 just seems old now but i wanted to wait till i really needed HD before changing.
how easy is it to focus with it? any chance of testing how easy it is to use with your letus? and of course, like everybody else i want to know how it handles low light! |

it was pre production model. Couldnt get much low light footage shot as only had one battery and had to charge that up halfway through the day. Nice camera |
