I own several Panny 3 chippers. Very happy with them, lots of bang for
the buck. The 120, though, had a few too many corners cut to make it
small for the casual user. The GS100 is better. The earlier 953 is a
great camera (have put its footage on the air) and is pretty doggone
cheap. If you need wide screen stuff, the upcoming GS400 is very good,
but only available here in Japan at the moment, I believe.
