This does look nice. As a Canonitte I'd love one of these for doing videos at work! The old Sony has just about had it. Nice looking unit too. Best feature for me is the great range of white balance options!
I've heard that Sony are the best video cameras.
That may well be true Sierra but I just can't help myself when it comes to giving money to Canon Corp.(winking smiley)
Canon products are from the best too, i can't deny that.
