Question jvc DV4000 or Pana NV-GX7 or Sony TRV33

I'm going to buy a digital cam and i'm still thinking about wich one of these i should buy:
JVC DV4000
Pana NV-GX7
sony TRV33

i'm NOT going to use the camera for the standard family/holyday use, but more for artistical/experimental movies.
at this moment my preference goes to the JVC, becouse of the f1.2 lens. but i have not seen any reviews about this camera, so i dont know about its qualities. is the imagequality good? as good as the sony or Panasonic?

an important feature for me is to be able to do many things manually, like focus, exposure, etc...

who can help me out with making a choice?
does someone have good advices or maybe another camera I should consider?

edit:
WOW I just found out that panasonic has released two 3CCD's for really low prices.
maybe time to wait for these cams in stead of the ones above?

Thanks!

The GX7,DV4000 and the Sony TRV80,not the TRV33,have similar specs.

I bought the GX7 and I am annoyed by the launch of the 3CCD higher still image Panasonic NV-GS70 this year,at a similar price.

The Sony is dearer.

The JVC is bulkier.

I would go for the GS70,as it a higher 3CCD spec and nice and compact.
