PMW-EX1 Update 2

Corrections and details

• Adam Van Voorhis of Boston Camera says that the EX1 does indeed supply Y/C video, using the same VMC-15FS cable that works on the HVR-V1.
• Reader Mark Weiss ran a formal audio analysis for line-level inputs, with interesting results.

My EX1 review has been updated with these tidbits.

Question: On the mighty DVInfo.com, there’s been a debate if the EX1 is indeed 10-bit out (live from HD-SDI). Can anyone verify this with a still .PNG file for download?

Is it 10-bit? If it is, it’ll be the first in it’s class - a new class of it’s own that it’s created.

It is 10-bit, and the live signal uses all 10 bits. I verified this tonight with uncompressed 10-bit and ProRes422 HD captured on a Kona 2 card, FCP 6.0.2, and examined in Shake 4.1 (which lets me look at pixel values directly).

Thank you for confirming Adam!
