Ok, will look at a different camera then.

I would like to echo what freeheels said. The video quality from this camera is remarkable, considering that it shoots "only" 1080p and in 24mbps AVCHD. The colour is great out of the box, auto-WB is very good too as is exposure control. The IQ seems to me to match the GH3 and in some ways is slightly better. Low-light at high ISO better than I expected.

It lacks a mic input but has peaking and the soft function buttons and sliders are so useful for changing ISO etc while shooting. I also find the tilt-up EVF very usable for filming.
