"A Complete Guide to Shooting with the
Sony HVR-Z1U & FX1" is the easiest way to learn both the
fundamentals and advanced features of these camcorders.
This 100-minute DVD workshop includes tutorials, step-by-step
examples, and detailed instructions covering the most important
aspects of camera setup, menus, shooting techniques, exposure,
picture profiles, time-code, assign buttons, shutter speed,
special effects, color correction, camera profiles, audio, white
balance, and more. This DVD will pay for itself many times over
by saving you hours of time figuring out things on your own.
This is a completely independent production with no
participation, sponsorship, input, or approval from Sony -- so
it delivers unbiased information and professional advice that
can't be found in the owner's manual.
Like all Vortex Media training DVDs, this workshop has been
carefully researched, planned and scripted (not presented
as"live" or ad lib). This DVD was produced by professionals with
years of broadcast-level experience who have the knowledge to
recognize what's important about the Z1U and how to teach it
without getting bogged down in jargon or unnecessary technical
details.
This DVD is a "must-see" for any HDV owner who wants detailed
explanations, examples, tutorials, tips, advice, and features
explained to them in simple no-nonsense terms.

"A Complete Guide to the
Z1U & FX1 Camcorders" was shot entirely in HDV with Z1 and FX1
camcorders, edited with FCP, and output in 16x9 SD for the DVD.
Throughout the video, a variety of video shooting modes are
demonstrated and explained, including Cineframe 24, CinemaTone,
and customized Picture Profiles.
This is not a bench-top demonstration or in-studio camera
review. It is an in-depth training video with shooting done by
professionals with years of ENG/EFP broadcast shooting
experience. Shooting took place over a four week period in many
locations of the country, under different conditions, indoors,
outdoors, lit, natural light, sports, b-roll, interview setups,
and in-studio, to give as much variety as possible to the
demonstrations and examples.
An EXTRAS folder is included on the DVD with several exclusive
documents, including: A detailed reference chart that outlines
every customizable setting of all six of the default Picture
Profiles so you can compare them and see the differences. Also
included is a comparison chart of the major differences between
the Z1 and the FX1. Some features discussed in the video only
apply to the Z1 and this chart helps identify those differences.
This 100 minute DVD will tell you everything you'll need to know
to get up and running quickly with either of the Sony HDV pro
camcorders. All of the essential features and functions are
covered in detail.
