The affordable Sony HDV camcorder looked like our next camcorder...until yesterday. SPOT could give you more detail on timelines because the Sony rep alluded and hinted BUT an XDCAM price point equivalent of the DSR 390 (1/2") will be coming out very soon, followed shortly thereafter by a 2/3" version in the DSR 570 price range. Yes, they they are HD/DV and come with a 7 year "bumper to bumper" warranty. When I went into the seminar I planned to order the little HDV camcorder. I left convinced XDCAM is the way to go.
Perhaps if DSE has a few minutes he could share his opinions of XDCAM.
