Sony VX2100 is a great camera, especially for one person crew kinda shoots and for filming spontaeous footage, as it has awesome low light capability. And it has a really nice flip out screen, great for general use and for p.o.v. shoots, as the cam is so lightweight . It is limited in some respects, the stock mic isn't really great, and most inexpensive add-on mics are mono only, and no XLR inputs if you want to use a boom mic for more sophistiated audio recording.
I also used a Canon XL-1 for many years, and the new XL-2 looks even more awesome with the same interchangable lense capability and other features like . It is for people wanting to shoot widescreen and other film-like features like the simultaneous 4-channel audio recording capability.
Of course if you want to go HD, that's another story and you can get the Sony FX-1 or more professional ZR-1, both 1080i cameras or wait for the next generation.
