JVC GY-HM790U

June 5, 2012 forum topics
I’m being issued this camera for daily use. I shoot news in the field from lit interviews to run and gun etc. I haven’t heard a single good thing about this camera. I’ve seen a couple of "good words" in the form of the three people who gave it positive reviews on the B and H website here;

I have lobbied very hard against it because I’ve always shot on real cameras, beta, sp, sx, xd. They can’t seem to understand the difference between this JVC and a real camera. Does anyone have experience with this rig good or bad? Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
