Sony VX 2100
Samples - Tons of them! 90% of porn is filmed with it.

I like my GL2... It was a tad cheaper then the sony and I actually like the way the footage looks a little better for what I am shooting.

The biggest drawback on the GL2 that I found is the lowlight.. It sucks for that, daytime and well lit sets its much better. Most seem to use the sony with the gl2 a close 2nd.

I love my Sony VX2100 - You'll have to pry it from my cold dead hands! ;)

Go with the Panasonic DVX100a, best 3 chip camera i have ever owned.

this is a sweet camera. :)

Canon GL2, lighter, easier to maneuver, excellent quality.

til Oct 31 it has a $500 rebate:)

no lighting suggestions ?

Whats you budget on lights? Lights are a very expensive part if your looking for high quality, anything from lowel to kino flos. I might be able to hook you up with a used lowel kit if your interested?
