Video advertising for web sites

Ok, so I have to ask. Is this overkill for filming very basic web ads for clients who want ‘em?

Probably, but hell, it’s just so secksy.  I want one.  Maybe it’s the geek in me (no, I wasn’t a member of the AV club at school) but I want to caress this camera.  *aside* the wife seems to think that wanting to fondle consumer (prosumer???) electronics is sick and/or demented.  But it’s a good looking camera, and the specs are pretty awesome!

  • HD formats – 1080/60i, 1080/30p, 1080/24p (Native); 720/60p, 720/30p, 720/24p (Native)
  • Three newly designed 1/4.1 Progressive 3MOS Imagers for full HD resolution
  • 12x Leica Dicomar lens (13 elements in 10 groups), 43mm filter , zoom range of 40.8 – 490mm (35mm equivalent)
  • Extremely slow, smooth zoom for the precise control needed for dramatic sequences
  • Time Date Stamp enables shooting Legal Depositions or Surveillance (not sure about this…who’d want to make sure web ads were legally admissable as evidence???)

Whatever – I want one!!!
