Here at GRP TV then I've only just got my hands on the Sony DSR 500 WSP DVCAM Camcorder. So I just thought that I'd share this with you all via a self portrait of me and the actual camera it's self :)
It boosts many of the pro specs that you would expect to find on a Broadcasting Camera, it has multiple video / monitor out ports for live feeds, which is something that I'm going to be experimenting with very soon via Audio / Video Senders.
When I first got the DSR 500 then I was very much unsure of what all the buttons does do ? But just after a few weeks of play then I now really do understand all the buttons that it is that is scattered around all over the entire body of the actual camera.
The tally function is something which I really do love the most, because when you press record then the tally light will start to flash / blink unto the tape is ready to start to record, after it's finished spooling the tape then the tally light will stay on full time with out blinking. This is great because I can now say to people ok only start to speak when you see the red light stop blinking. This is because I was sick to death of trying to explain to people why there is a small delay from when I press the record button to the point where it is that they can actually start to speak. Again this is now all over as I can simply just say to people only start to speak when you see the red light stop blinking :) Over all I'm over the moon with my latest investment in the Sony DSR 500 WSP DVCAM Camcorder.
