It's a very good consumer camera. I have footage that aired on "E" that was a celebrity profile and nobody but the producer had any idea the shots didn't come from their expensive betacams. The camera has better than average image quality but I would recommend the GL-1 over it. Depends if you just want a good consumer camera or actually want to do real work. The vistura has not enough manual control if you are professionally lighting shots and 3 chips is better than 1.(posted 8961 days ago)
