Hi all

I'm going to buy a couple HMC150's and I want to buy a backup/B-roll cam that I could use if needed. Kinda like the Canon A1 matches up well with the HV30 for this purpose. Any one have a suggetion? I don't really like the HMC70, to bulky for my style.

So far I have found this:

Panasonic | HDC-SD100K High Definition SD Camcorder | HDC-SD100K (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=workaround.jsp&A=details&Q=&sku=575449&is=REG#features)

Thanks

You might try looking at the Canon HF11, or similar.

Panasonic is coming out with some new cameras that should outperform anything canon has presently:

Camcorder / Digital Video Camera | Panasonic Global (http://www.panasonic.net/avc/camcorder/index.html)
3CCD 1/4" CMOS Sensors 17Mbps

Canon is releasing some new models also with 1/2.6 Single CMOS Sensor and records at 24Mbps.
