HXR-NX70测评，by Philip Johnston
#设备体验#
先简单介绍下Philip Johnston，他也是一个英国的影视制作人，摄影师。是成立于1998年的小视频公司（Small Video Company ltd）的摄影总监。他貌似做过很多摄像机的评论，这篇测评来自他的博客，其实只是对NX70做了简单的阐述，他和索尼到底有什么合作关系我也没查到，总之就是先给大家做个参考吧。

在海多克公园做的NX70测试。
Sony let me film for about 45 minutes getting a few interviews and shots round the show so how did the new baby perform…
索尼让他做个45分钟片子。
When I tried the camcorder side by side with my MC50 the first thing that struck me was the lack of light compared to the MC50, this was disappointing as I had been assured by Sony that it was using the same chipset as the MC50. I decided to dig deeper and discovered that the last person to play with the camcorder had set the shutter to 1/2000, so that was my discrepancy solved the shutter had been on with no indication in the viewfinder.
他拿NX70和MC50放在一起做测试，NX70显得有点暗。NX70和MC使用的是相同的芯片组。之后将快门设为1 / 2000，取景器上看不到差别。
The first thing that strikes you is the new home screen I did not have time to photograph it so this is thanks to CVP who have also done a good review of the NX70. All the above are touch screen the same as the MC50 but with far more manual over rides, gain, shutter, iris to name a few. As a note the “Camera/Audio” icon is not as you first think a menu for the “Audio” it’s the main menu for the camera functions and the audio.
NX70的触摸屏和MC50一样,但好像是说多了些功能了，增益，快门，光圈等等。This camcorder is just bristling with features the main one being it’s ability to produce 1080 50p pictures…unheard of from such a small professional camcorder until now, with Sony Vegas 10, Edius 6 from Grass Valley and the new Final Cut Pro 10 you can now edit the “holy grail” of 1920 x 1080 Full HD 50p.
这个摄像机最重要是能够拍摄1080 50p的画面，这是我迄今为止见过的最小的专业摄像机。用索尼Vegas 10，Edius 6，Final Cut Pro 10（今天我发帖时看见了另一个新闻，说是Pr5.5也能剪辑1080 50P了）这下几乎都可以剪辑1920×1080全高清50p的画面了吧。
I decided to let the 1080 50p pass by me till I get my hands on my own NX70 but from all accounts it’s a further step up the HD ladder that will be hard to climb down from and will even give dearer camcorders a run for their money but time will tell.
天哪，一个长句………………时间会证明一切。
The camera is bigger than the MC50, thank goodness, but it’s still small enough to give you that ease of use of a hand held but with all the big Pro features and more. There is no slacking in the audio department with phantom powered XLR inputs and gain pots, you also get audio level indicators on the viewfinder…fantastic.
NX70比MC50大，但它仍然是小到足以让你手持。录音单元设计非常紧凑，有XLR输入和增益钮，你还可以在取景器上看到音频指标。
The SD card slot is easily accessible and the camcorder comes with a built in 96GB of memory which can record simultaneously with the SDHC card giving you a nice back up feature.
SD卡插槽很方便，最大可有96GB，SDHC是一个不错的选择。
The camera performed flawlessly and it was great to be able to set your gain to 0dB giving you a very punchy picture indeed. I am a big audio buff and having balanced XLR inputs is a joy, I will be doing a full video review when I get my own NX70 possibly by the end of May but this wee camera will find it’s way into some big HD productions. From weddings to broadcast there is no doubt in my mind that Sony have produced a cracking jewel in their crown and I hope Japan can keep up with the world wide demand on such a perfect wee camcorder.
相机的表现很好，在增益为0dB时能有一个很强大的画面。他很看重摄像机录音，很在乎是否有XLR输入。接下来他会晒一个NX70的视频，当然我会继续关注。他觉得NX70将会找到属于自己的高清制作方式。然后扯到索尼从婚庆到广播级都有了，看样子他很喜欢这种小机器……（也难怪是小视频公司的嘛，哈哈）
