Can you guys do a test against a Panasonic LX3 at 720P? It would be interesting to compare the video quality of a high end camera that does 720P video against a video camera that does pictures and see who does better video at 720P.

Then compare the camera feature of one of the Sanyos to the LX3.

It is a waist of time comparing the lx3, it is ccd based and the vertical smear(purple streaks or vertical image break-up) is so bad in low light dimly lit situations that it cannot be expected to be anything of a stills camera only.

Cmos whilst suffering from wobble do at least avoid the issue of smear, something knowbody has been able to avoid in consumer digicams, especially hd. Therefore the comparison is futile,, add in no stereo mics etc and you quickly relaise that the xactis are still very good at what they do, portable hd.

Won't HD2000 and FH1 have optical image stabilizer? What a pity! Having HD1000 I can tell the absence of OIS is my biggest complaint about this great little camera.

Looks like they still don't have built in lens covers and that's my only complaint with our HD700.

Great, my Xacti 1010 is no longer the latest and greatest!

I think it would be interesting. Comparing a very good camera that also takes video and a portable video camera that takes pictures. They both have there focus, but I'd be interested in which one's secondary focus is better.

I'm sure many are thinking of buying either a camera with video capability or a video camera that takes pictures. I think this comparison would give people the positive points and the negative points of each.

Also, I've seen low light LX3 HD video on veoh and they're pretty good. I see the smearing when there is harsh focused light but I was surprised that I could live with it, seeing that the LX3 is very portable and has a really good lens.
