But not as big as the GL2 or vx2000? Sony pdx-10? I need something that won't look like I am shooting a pro vid. or something like that. Thank you.

There isn't any unless you go with an old model.

Bruce,
Perhaps if you offered more about your anticipated subjects and settings others who shoot in similar conditions could give you better guidance.

nightclubs, clubs, etc....thanks for the help.

You might want to consider a 1 chip like the older Optura 100MC or PV-DV852.

I understand the JVC DV300 is pretty good in low light and below 3k at the moment. It's a 3 chipper but maybe out of your price range?
