Sony TRV900 vs TRV950 vs VX2000e vs PD150p

My intention is on indie narrative filmmaking. Anyone care to talk about your experience or comparisons on these models? Thanks! My major concerns are: image quality, low light, manual focus.

I heard many times that jvc or panasonic got better deals as compare to sony (many said that 1/2 inch 3CCD panasonic has the same price as PD150, but how's the image result really?)

I own a TRV950 and have used both the TRV900 and the VX2000. I find the image quality of the 950 just as good as the VX, provided you take the time to utilize your manual features. A nice difference between the 900 and the 950 is the ablity to shoot in 16:9 without loosing resolution. I am very pleased with my current camera and would only trade it for something with 24p (but who wouldnt?)
