Product Description: "Mastering Sony's PMW-200, 160, 150, 100 XDCAM Cameras” training DVD is the quickest way to learn both the fundamentals and advanced features of the new HD422 camcorders and their state-of-the-art tapeless XDCAM workflow. This is not a superficial review of the camcorders nor a quick look at the various functions. This training video not only tells you "what" a feature does, it also tells you "why", "when", and "how" to use it.

This is as close to a one-on-one training session with Doug Jensen as you can get without actually hiring him yourself for personal instruction. How much is your time worth? For a small investment, you can get up to speed on all of the camera’s features and functions -- plus Doug shares his favorite tips and tricks for getting great shooting results. "Mastering Sony's PMW-200, 160, 150, 100 XDCAM Cameras” includes tutorials, step-by-step examples, and detailed instructions covering the most important aspects of camera setup, menus, shooting techniques, choosing a video format, clip naming, file management, clip importing, Picture Profiles, time-code, programming the assign buttons, customizing the viewfinder display, freeze-mix, white balance, multi-matrix, proper use of Zebras, jam-syncing, focus assist functions, shutter speed, gain, time-lapse, slow-motion, camera data files, best practices for importing and archiving footage, and much more.
