another just got my XH A1 post
 

I film outdoor action sports (skiing, Mtn biking, skateborading,) I was filming with a Canon GL2 and absolutely loved that camera so simple and color was great. I finally decided i to take the next step and deplete my wallet. This thing is absolutly amazing all of the features and the picture is stunning i cant believe the clarity and color. Next year the RED Scarlet is on my list :)

That was pretty much my reaction when switching from the XM2 (GL2) - the clarity and colours blew me away! But there is so much to learn about using this camera before you need to make the next step up. You can actually improve on what you got straight out of the box;-)

haha! me too - stunning camera and still learning loads after nearly a year using it

The A-1 is a lot of camcorder for the money.

Best around for the money.
