I shoot mainly action-sport stuff (rollerblading), but have also done a bit of corporate/municipal and wedding stuff. My current main camera is a Canon 60D, and my primary motivation for the switch to the GH3 is of course the massively-better video quality... but the smaller weight and size of m4/3 is really appealing as well. I love having a somewhat compact, lightweight kit that can fit on/in a backpack, and my setup for the Canon pretty much has my rather large Ogio bag maxed out, and I still need/want to add a slider and a telephoto.
Currently, for zooming, tracking AF and general ease-of-use for handing it off to friends for second angles, I have a Panasonic SDT-750 (basically the same as the TM700 or TM900). The problem is that it doesn't match well at all with the Canon, so I rarely use it. I was going to replace it with the Canon HF-G10, as it seemed a good match color- and resolution-wise for the 60D, but now with the switch to the GH3 I'm not sure if the G10 will match well. I've checked out the new Sonys briefly (the CX760V and PJ760V), would they be a better match for the GH3's more-detailed image (and supposedly-Sony sensor)? What would you guys recommend for a small, relatively inexpensive (<$1500 or so) camcorder to match up with GH3 footage?
