Let me first say, I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything. It's just I'm not sure which camera to go with. I've narrowed it down to the Canon XL1s and the Pan DVX100a 24p.
I don't have anywhere to go to sit and down and hold these things and compare them in person, so i'm coming to you guys.
Little background of what I plan on doing with this camera is I'm going to start an event videography business (weddings and such). I however, want to create short films as well, the business will provide a means to pay for everything.
So, any comparisons that people can provide me I'd be much appreciated.
