Which is better for the FS100????

Tamron 70-200mm F2.8 vs Canon 70-200mm F2.8L non-IS vs Canon 70-200mm F2.8L IS

A related question would be, are the sharpness of the L-Glass noticeable at 1080p?

I think you would see a difference.. but not a huge difference. the non-IS would be better just because you can't use the IS and it would be cheaper. You won't be able to change aperture with theses lenses FYI.

It would probably be easier to use a nikon mount lens (whether nikon's 70-200mm, tamron, sigma, etc) because many of the nikon to nex e-mount adapters have aperture control. Besides the upcoming canon EF adapter from Birger engineering and others, that might be a wait.

Shawn Lam also did a review, a mix of 24-70mm and some zoom lens

until birger release the adapter, nikon lens is the best to go. Get nikon 80-200 f/2.8 ED

Try to visit a retailer which has all in stock and give them a try.
For what it's worth, when I was looking years back I tested a bunch of different lenses of each, and ended up getting the Sigma 70-200.
