I am really stuck between these two cameras due to the pros and cons.
The points I am considering:
Sony;
Wide lens (26mm on 35mm equiv.)
Very Good Low Light
Built in 96GB storage
Effectively Waterproof
Cons:
28mb/s recording
Canon
50MB/s recording
4:2:2 codec (apparently awesome!)
Cons;
Poor low-light
Now both are pretty close on price, but I would like to be using it for weddings and corporate video.
With good lighting the Canon is currently the best quality in the price range, however the Sony is much more versatile by the look of it?
Would the difference between Canon's 4:2:2 at 50mb be significantly noticeable compared to 28MB/s on AVCHD and does the low-light ability of the Sony outweigh the benefits of the Canon's data rate?
I would love opinions and even users of the camera's to offer feedback.
Also the Sony as far as the spec goes it has better shooting formats?
Canon;
MPEG2 1920x1080 50i
MPEG2 720p12 -50
MPEG2-1080p12 25
Sony;
AVCHD 1920 x 1080/50p
AVCHD 1440 x 1080/50i
AVCHD 1920 x 1080/50i
AVCHD 1920 x 1080/25p
SD MPEG2 720 x 576
Full spec. comparison here:
