I kind of skipped around on the video but does this camera have a ND filter? I assume it would. I also assume it records on the SD card and I believe you mentioned it has a fire wire capability? Shoot if I had some extra dollars in my pocket, I would by this in a heart beat. I am videographer/editor and I have a canon gl1 right now (which is very nice) just doesn't have all the whistles and bells this camera has nor shoots in HD. :(

You're kidding right? LOL some people freak me out. Canon makes an amazing camera. Obviously you had to settle for the JVC. Too bad . Of course you do have to be a real photgrapher to use the Canon. I guess the JVC is okay for the novice videographer.

I think this camera ...

I think this camera is amazing. Canon DSLR's are amazing for recording too! And much cheaper. So if you really want to get into filming, I suggest buying one of them instead of jumping right up to pro-level cams.
