Total score ?
(maximal 570)

Pros + Sharpness and colour at the upper AVCHD limit
+ Many manual controls
+ 1080p50
 
Cons - setting focus manually is a little complicated
 
Conclusion Not only does Panasonic offer 50p, it also brings enough wide angle (which even isn´t affected by the active image stabilisation), good low-light performance and colors, great sharpness and lots of manual control.(only 2D mode)
