Canon
Canon’s HDV equivalent to its XL family of DV camcorders is the XL HI ($8,999). Like the JVC camcorders, this camcorder also includes the ability to remove the lens and put another on. The XL HI also has a significant number of film-like image settings, and a Professional Jackpack (HD SDI, genlock, and time code output).
JVC
The JVC GY-HD200 ($8,995) is designed more for electronic news gathering (ENG), along with digital cinematography and other forms of videography. It is very similar to the HD110, but has more features, including the extra ability to record in 60p and 50p in HDV mode.
The GY-HD250 ($10,995) is also similar to the GY-HD200 and GY-HD110, and is the most professional of its ProDV camcorders. This camcorder features HD SDI, genlock and time code output.
