The Bottom Line	If you're looking for a MiniDV camera for pro-level videography with a film-like look, this 24P model is a top contender.	Panasonic has listened. The third incarnation of the AG-DVX100 offers unrivalled bang for the buck in a prosumer standard-definition MiniDV camera.	This professional 24P camera in compact dress raises the bar for its semipro price class.	With its AG-HVX200, Panasonic raises the bar again, bringing us professional HD versatility and quality at a lower price than ever.	Canon's XH A1 and XH G1 are excellent camcorders for entry-level professionals and independent filmmakers, with hard-to-beat prices for what they offer.
