I got myself the HF M52 yesterday to use as a backup camera to my XA10.. I did a few test shots and put them together with comparisons from my XA10.

Hope this helps in some way :)

What was your impression of the image quality of each camera before compressing for YouTube?

Well the XA10 is the best camera I've used image quality wise and I can't really compare it to more expensive cameras. But in my opinion the image quality of both cameras is very good. The HF M52 seems to produce a very similar image to the XA10 (maybe not quite as sharp, but very similar colours), which is impressive considering the price difference. Personally if I didn't need the XLR inputs I'd probably just buy the HF M52.
