So far JVC and panasonic HVX200…

Mickey asked:


Eventhough this HDV camera has 1/3″ccds, has interchangeable lens and can record in 720p for less price?

I am a film student and I do not feel comfortable buying items this expensive online.

lamerthree asked:


On most professional camcorders, they have this black rim around the lense, I would assume its to omit surrounding light from entering the lenses. They have them on for example a Canon GL2 and 1. I want to know so I would be able to buy an external one to add to a Panasonic GS-500
Here is an example of what I mean.
