Three days ago a man from Panasonic Broadcast Europe told me, that in Europe the HVX200 will be sold only with two P2 cards à 8 GB inclusive. No chance to get the camera without the two cards. That means, the price, you have to pay for the HVX, will be much higher than in America for instance...
If You life in or nearby Berlin, Neu Anspach, Wiesbaden, Ludwigsburg or Munich, just have a look here: http://panasonic-broadcast.de/index.cfm?uuid=34A137CDC09F11269B138EAFB474FED8.
To sum up, you can say that the JVC GY-HD100 has the following problems regarding the picture:
1. Chromatic aberration
2. Smear (http://www.time-code-media.de/blitzer.jpg, http://www.time-code-media.de/blitzer2.jpg)
3. Split screen (http://www.time-code-media.de/split.jpg)
4. Dead pixels...
Here are two pictures shot with the HD100. How could you avoid the smear?

Yesterday Canon Germany published its first information about the new XL H1, where You can read, that the camera will record 1080 in 25p(rogressive)! Available from December 2005 for 9.149,00 Euro (incl. of VAT). Here is the source...
At the Panasonic homepage you can read, that the camera will have a 1/3" 16:9 native progressive 3-CCD imager - does that mean, that the CCDs will have a resolution of 1280 x 1080 respectively 1.382.400 pixels each, at least?
