XF100 for events - or maybe something else?

Interesting Josh, and encouraging too.

I forgot to mention the approximately $800 price difference.

Sometimes people don't think about hiring and all they need is a gentle reminder. As to where you're from, I won't even second guess availability. I offer these ideas up out of shear willingness to assist.

Grazie

Sergej, If I were you, and I needed a camcorder, I would start poking around and looking at video samples for the AG160. It is a damn nice camera, excellent in low light, and shoots every mode you could possibly want, and it has a 22X zoom.

It cannot and will never be able to compete with a 5D or other DSLR for low light, but no traditional camera in this price range can.

I'm curious to know which cam Sergej ended up with. I now find myself in a similar predicament and could use the knowledge/experience
