What is the industry standard?

Are you sure about that? It was my understanding that the only show still shot on film today/this year was 30 Rock. I could certainly be mistaken though. (Or it could have been the only show on NBC or something...)

ABC shoots Castle on film still. DP is old school from the days of the X files.

So, unless someone plans to produce material that destined for 'broadcast', I'd say there are other aesthetic considerations that one would better look at.

The reason I brought up the broadcast quality standards is because the OP asked specifically about broadcast television, which makes me think that the OP is planning to produce content specifically for that medium. There are a couple television channels out there like History, Discovery, Animal Planet, and BBC that purchase feature programming from independent production companies and broadcast it on their networks. The network itself, then, must impose some kind of quality control to make sure that the footage they're getting will be somewhat compliant with their post production and publishing/broadcasting workflow. If you're an independent content creator, which I think this OP is interested in being based on his questions, he should be aware that these standards exist as they may better inform him of the type of camera he should be looking at.
 
I think I see something in 'broadcast' I dont know what it is (or certainly more expensive cameras)

Could be a 444 colour space or a level of compression or (lack of) rolling shuter or all of these things

Say the F35, its a 1080 camera, so it should be the same as the FS100 or F3 right ? - pull the other one

I dont even know waht the data rate is .. http://www.sony.co.uk/biz/product/hdcamsrcamcorders/f35/features

Of course Ive only seen an F35 in use in conjuction with art direction, the best cine primes, and a truck of lighting so maybe its not the camera..

I want the look to match the varicam..if you can get a 5D to match that..let me know..and I don't mean look as in color grading..I can't really describe it..just a different feel to the footage...I see a difference in the DSLRs vs. real cameras..forget about the production conditions and post...just a different look is there..

This phenomenon has been classified as Pana mojo...and can be seen in the hmc 150 series and up :)
