The image quality is amazing, The colors are true and beautiful. The low light is unmatched at 1.5 lux. The Minolta G series lens is smooth focusing and sharp as can be. It's a great camera for event photography or documentary. You can add on the Sony CF Card reader and foget about shooting tape anymore or use tape as a back-up. Only drawback is that it doesn't have XLR inputs but for $150 you can mount a small unit on the bottom that has two XLR inputs ans still save $1400 with tax.
I bought this camera and used it numerous times in a church broadcast for a live mix. The HDR-FX1000 has outstanding picture quality and easy to use controls. I received numerous compliments for it's picture quality.

I trust Sony's quality (this is 5th Sony Camcorder), so the learning curve for this model wasn't a hassle. Great product!
