Sure, but it means a hell of a lot more than those min lux ratings.

Like I've said a number of times, lux ratings mean nothing when it comes to camcorders considering the fact that each CCD is a different size (yup... i said SIZE), res, Image Processing (i.e. Digic II va Pana 12bit RGB), and above all of these... GAIN.

Don't bother trying to compare luminance sensitivity in this way. The only way to REALLY know is to line the cameras up side to side and film the same environment with the same lighting and find the optimal exposure whether its using gain on or not.

Much like res chart analysis, Lux readings can only be verified when you're out there and you're actually FILMING..

I think it's there, but under all of the other switches. (NOTE...Sorry, I notice that this was already posted)
