    New Camera and RJ Boosting

    I have had a Sony HDR-SR1, which was the first gen of the AVCHD camcorders that recorded to hard disk. This has been a great camera, no complaints. Our Canon Digital Rebel XT is in the shop, because it has a piece of dust or something in the camera, that is showing up in images. The SR1 only takes 4MP stills, and It can only take like 3 images while you are video taping, and it can't take anymore. The new SR12 camera, takes better HD video, and takes great 10.2MP stills, plus it takes 7.6 MP stills WHILE you are video taping. It can even take as many stills while video taping as your storage allows, no 3 limit. It has 120GB drive, so plenty of storage. The only drawback, is if videotaping, you can snap a photo, and then have to wait about 12 secs to snap another.

    Now here are some pics of RJ REALLY starting to boost more and more air. These pics are NOT stills. These are frame grabs done in iMovie taken direct from the 1080HD movies that came off of the camera.

    Take a look.

















    These were taken at Black Butte lake, about 50 mins away. Its actually quicker to go and launch here, due to the difficulty of launching at oroville.

        Nice pics. ragboy! I didn't realize you could shoot stills while recording.

        We have the SR11. It has a 60GB HD. The footage is incredible. $950 @ Costco.

            No, have you? I have thought about it, but it is even smaller. How deep is it? When it gets shallower than 15, the wake starts to shut down.

                  I have the HDR-SR10. I have been looking into filters for it. Have you tried any other filters on the camera? Just wondering.

                      That is an awesome video. The quality is amazing!

                      Thanks for sharing it!

                        I had the first generation HDR-SR1, it did great, but the new one (SR12) has an amazing jump in quality. Its not the bitrate, they are the same.

                          If you want to see another example of the quality, this is inside, bad lighting, after imported from camera, quick edit, then shrink to 960x540 for web and publish. Original video is 1080i.

                          Click LARGE for the 960x540 version, it is off topic, but it demonstrates the quality of this little camera. Its easy to get decent quality outside in the nice light.

                            That is amazing! I got to get me one of those!

                            What is the price range of one of those cameras?

                              The SR12 is $1000 to $1299 depending where you get it. The SR11 is exactly the same, just smaller hard drive, 60GB, which is still plenty, and I think 200 bones less.
