Pros and cons.

NX100 is better in low light but depth of field is shallower.
Consider also the 4K JVC HM170 now at new low price.

read the reviews not very good
the good thing is compact and the handle can be remove like the pxw x70
but of cos at a much higher price

Actually i quite like the MI of the SONY
So I can use their wireless transmitter if I get a sony camcorder
still haven made up my mind btw sony or sennheiser wireless

Another new gear from sony - lookings very interesting though
