The Sony XDCAM PMW-EX1R is the revised version of the iconic EX1. The revisions on this camera make it a really fine camera for my purposes. I must point out that the 5 stars for ease of use apply if you are used to or are prepared to learn this camera in manual mode. It is in this mode that this camera excels. Also, it is important to set the picture profile to suit your purposes.If you are not familiar with this camera I strongly recommend the Vortex Media DVDs Mastering the Sony PMW-EX1 & EX1R and the Field Guide. This camera is designed to use Sony's SxS cards which ARE expensive. The MxM adapters which take a class 10 recomended SDHC card work a treat even in the more advance modes eg overcranking. This camera was superceded by the PMW 200 in Sept 2012 which has some distinct advances but I understand it does not enjoy the benefits of the MxM adapter which hit the sales of the Sony SxS card. Your own needs must be carefully assessed for example, as unlike the EX3 it does not offer interchangeable lenses.
