GH2 vs. Canon Camcorder

[gunstarhero]

I just wanted to share this comparison between a canon camcorder and a GH2. Each shot was from the same event in the same location 1 year apart. The camcorder has a light and the GH2 doesnt. Only the 20mm pancake lens and available light.

"1 year apart."
"The camcorder has a light and the GH2 doesnt"

So what, really, is there to compare then?

 

[gunstarhero]

Low light capabilities of DSLR's over traditional HD camcorders.

The footage looks really processed. Is that the case?

Low light capabilities of DSLR's over traditional HD camcorders.

How can you compare it when one camera has a light & the other doesn't?
A valid comparison would be if both camera's had no light.

For me there is a difference in quality... Sure, the GH2 needed to be white balanced, but other than that it looked far superior to the Canon HD camera. Nice comparison.
