Advantages: 1394 interface, supports DV input/output, AV input/output! You can record DVCAM and DV formats, and you can also use DVCPRO videos. After testing, the 1394 interface can output audio and video data normally even without tape, so it is very simple to add a hard disk recording unit (1394 interface or AV interface) to upgrade the machine to hard disk media.

Disadvantages: the performance is consistent with 150/ 190P, but the price is more than 10,000 yuan. Batteries, chargers and tripod trays are all broadcast-grade prices, which are much more expensive than the receiver, but the weight is still not light. Although it supports mini DV tape, it is easy to get stuck.

If you plan to do wedding photography and post-production. First of all, it depends on the customer group you are targeting.

If you are mainly facing the cameraman in the rural wedding celebration market, you should think carefully when purchasing equipment. Although the rural wedding market is large, the consumption level and ability are relatively low. If you invest a lot in the camera, but you can't recover your investment quickly for a while, it's obviously not cost-effective. But if you just buy an ordinary home mini DV, there will definitely be many customers who think that you are not professional enough to fool people. Small DV will make customers feel embarrassed. If so, your business will definitely be less and less. The following DV will make you not only cheap, but also very professional, which is an excellent product specifically for the low-end market. Panasonic MD9000EN can be said to be the cheapest wedding camera at present. The low-end market recommends Panasonic MD9000EN.

The high-end market is mainly aimed at the wedding and celebration markets in large and medium-sized cities. General cameras require high quality and personalization. So camera service must have two points: real professional and personalized service. What is really professional is not just bluffing in appearance like MD9000, but really meeting the requirements of high-quality shooting. Personalization refers to being able to provide unique shooting effects. Panasonic AG-DVCl80MCA is the first to be launched, facing the high-end market, and its cost performance is very high at present. DVCl80MCA is a portable handheld DV for professional producers. It uses three 1/3 inch progressive scanning CCD sensors, each with 470,000 pixels, and the shooting quality is very high.

DVCl80MCA adopts 10x optical zoom Leica lens, 32.5-325mm (equivalent to 35mm system), which has the most needed wide-angle function for weddings, celebrations and other occasions. Its OIS optical anti-shake device can compensate the image shake caused by slight hand shake. This machine is equipped with a 3.5-inch LCD monitor.

DVCl80MCA is also a hand-held camera which adopts the film standard. Video images similar to film effects can be shot through 25P shooting mode and gamma correction curve similar to movies. DVCl80MC also preset six shooting modes, such as standard scene, fluorescent light scene, banquet scene, dusk scene, movie atmosphere scene and advanced mode scene, for 24P nonlinear editing, which is very convenient and fast. When you shoot a wedding for a client, you can try to use the movie mode, which will definitely get unexpected results.

For the general wedding market in small and medium-sized cities, the photography quality of customers is higher than that in rural areas and small and medium-sized towns, so it is very important to configure a camera with good appearance and photography quality. The following three models can fully meet your requirements for higher camera quality, and they are not expensive and will have a good appearance. Most of the wedding market still belongs to this level. At this level, the first Sony model is DCR- VX2 100E. Sony VX2 100E digital camera is the replacement product of VX2000E, which attracts the attention of many users and even professionals with its professional performance and rich functions. It can be regarded as a simplified version of Sony PDl90P p. Except that there is no professional format of DVCAM, other indicators are basically the same as PDl90P P, which is more convenient for later video editing and lower in all aspects.

In short, the wedding camera market has different grades, and the choice of models should be based on different people. We should also consider the production cost and labor cost of video clips in the later period.
