Which Is The Best Camcorder For Shooting A Professional Film With?
Then transferring it to 16 or 35mm, etc. Has anyone out there tried this, I know it’s getting more popular for low budget producers like myself.!

I use a Sony HVR-Z1 for most of my work - if its good enough for the BBC and National Geographic who am I to argue?
As for converting from digital media to film - wouldn’t have thought it was very viable.
im not up on all the state of the art stuff but my mates have got a sanyo and they are happy with it also i think samsung and sony are good makes too hope that isok xx
josh hail is that you?
it doesn’t sound as if you have a distribution deal to put your “movie” into theaters. the best money Hollywood has made is DVD sales. A DVD costs less than a dollar to make and can be sold for $30 easy. Getting a DVD into retail stores is much easier than getting screen time at a theater.
If that is the case for you, then shoot your first movie to be DVD friendly. A miniDV camera with 16:9 option is ideal and will cost under $500. forget the 24p, it will only foul up the DVD conversion. Think “small” screen.
It’s your luucky day.The BBC Click program covered this only this morning.Have a look at this :-http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/cl…
This is a subjective question. Waldo gave one article on consumer-grade camcorders. I’ve provided a link to Studio Monthly. It’s got a boat load of advice, tutorials and product reviews: http://www.studiodaily.com/studiomonthly…
Good luck!
Your better off shooting directly on film. Your looking at $3700.00 just for the camera. http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stor…
Just rent a 16mm & blow it up to 35mm. Go video if you want direct to DVD. Save your money for the shot. Do one or the other. I doubt you can afford to do both. Good luck.
