I'll look into it. The G series has always interested me. Cheers. |

If you want to work with video, I would suggest buying a video camera rather than a DSLR (that's just me - simply because they are geared more towards video).
I have recently bought Panasonic HDC-HS900. It's the hard-disk version of the TM900 and I can say I am quite impressed with it. The main things it features include:
a) Manual controls - focus, shutter speed, iris (although together with gain function)
b) Stereo mic jack for recording sound etc.
c) Image Stabilisation
d) ability to record Full HD (120x1080p)
e) bigger sensor - it actually has three sensors instead of one as in most consumer cameras. |

Aye. Too much stuff out there and it makes your head spin. The first image I sold (editorial) was taken with a secondhand Olympus 35SP |

Nice gear - I see DPReview gave it a Gold award - but i'm into the Canon system for the foreseeable future. Thanks though. |
