Great camera for people who know how to actually operate a camera. If you are one of the people who just want to turn a camera on and let the camera make all the exposure and focus decisions then get a VX2100.
The price of the DVX is way down and also there is a $300 rebate now because anybody with a clue is moving to HD now since the HDV cams came out. Pannasonic will be out with a 720p DVCPRO HD cam under $10k this year also so they are trying to move their DVX100A cams now.
You might want to check out the Sony HDV cams. Some morons on this board say the camera is shit but they don't know what they are talking about. I have to get up at 5 am to go work a shoot for the TV show NCIS and will be doing some of the risky shots with the HDV cam while they keep their $165k F900 HD cam safe from the water. So if the HDV cam is good enough for a backup of a $165k camera on a network TV show then it is good enough for the average retard who is shooting models.
