Hello,

I am a newbie and I have been researching the matter of video A LOT the last two months and I am really in the need of an HD camcorder to start my journey in video making.
So after extensive research I have narrowed down to 3 options yet to come.
1)Canon HF S10
2)Panasonic HDC HS300
2)Samsung HMX-H100 series (as I named the thread because i found no other topic on them)

I am really confused because I really like the huge sensor of the Canon but I also really like the viewfinder and the manual ring of the Panasonic.
But after all that I also found the Samsung which has a 37 mm wide lens, which is really different from the 43 of the other two. Does that make it significantly wider getting closer to the wide angle of a professional camera?
Please share uor thoughts about comparison of the three.
I am really interested in the best quality of the image produced, but also like to have the ring and viewfinder.
help me please
thank you
