Total score ?
(maximal 570)		350279
Pros + sharpness and colors practically at the upper limit of AVCHD
+ Many manual controls
+ Automatic lens cover
Cons - No zebra function
- no 1/25 sec. shutter speed in cinema mode
- small wide angle
- manual focus control badly implemented
- small wide angle
Conclusion Like its predecessors this cam satisfies with its very good image sharpness and the good manual controlsThe small wide-angle and missing zebra-function must be critizised.In comparison some competitors have notably better displays (Sony SR11/12) and more external manual controls (Sony SR11/12, CX11, Panasonic HS100, SD100).
