New HD cams from Sony? Can't Post
I currently use a VX2100, and would really like to get one of the HD cameras from Sony, mainly for the 16:9.

The one thing that is stopping me is the low light,

So, does anybody have any idea when Sony will release a newer set of HD cameras with better low light? Any rumours floating around?

NAB? or is that too early. If the Z2-U has 1lux I'm sold.

My understanding is that the new HDV cam is going to be placed as the competitor to the XL HDV cam. It will be replacement to the Sony shoulder cams (DSR 250, 300, etc). Word is that it will efinitely be over $6K and that the lens will be a really long one. Will it drive down the price of the Z1 and FX1? I dunno.

What worries do you have about low light? I use both the FX1 and the Z1 and have no problems at all with low light.
