Choosing camera for new school video production suite

I wasn't really thinking about their output, but just stating that the A1 isn't too tough for highschoolers.

I should have stated that I think he should probably get a DVX.
 
Yeah, I was probably over defensive about that post, went back and re-read the other comments, realized you weren't just commenting about my post. My bad.

But yeah DVX still has the same learning curve as the A1. They both still have generally the same manual controls. Only diff is A1's menu setting for HD.

Run and gun, my complants for the A1 is (which i hate to keep going back to) mainly the zoom factor. It's hard to control, even sitting there practicing, it just doesn't respond the same, like the DVX. I'd much prefer DVX style zoom, rather than the infinite spinning ring. But for how I shoot (prefer camera movement, dollies etc, rather than zooming) the A1 doesn't cause a problem for me.
