Okay, so this isn't really technique, but it IS about wedding videos...sort of.
Have any of you heard or seen the Sony HVR-HD1000U? Goggle it, and you'll find pictures and a link to Sony's site with a press release about it. HDV CMOS.
Here is the press release link:

Sony says they the camera is being marketed to wedding videographers, but from what I can tell, the camera is a bit lacking on some manual controls I need for shooting weddings and from what I can tell, no XLR. It is supposed to sell under $1900 US, though.
Looking at some of the pictures, I cant help but think of the old shoulder-mounted VHS camcorders from the 1980's. There is lots of plastic, and only a few buttons on the thing.
Sony calls it "pro" in the press release, but I think that may be stretching it just a wee bit - at least based on their press release.
