Ever since DSLR cameras started recording video we've been waiting for a product like the Sony Handycam NEX-VG20 to come along. People obviously love the way DSLRs and system cameras capture video, and they love the ability to work with different lenses...
Because we don't have access to the gadget for a full product analysis we are not able to provide you any certain conclusion. According to Sony, their NEX-VG20 will come in two versions which will be officially released in November at a price of 1599 dol...

Superb image quality; menu controls; removable lenses
confusing manual controls
The removable lens nature doesn't only stretch to the feature set of the Sony VG20, as the image quality reflects. With the amount of manual controls on offer, as well as the inputs and versatility of the extra lenses, the Sony VG20 is perfect for the adv...

Progressive scan video modes: 50p and 25p, Highpower battery, 5.1 microphone, Low depth of field, Good build and finish, Viewfinder can be angled, Photo mode RAW/Jpeg

Excellent image and video quality. Very well made. Great range of extra accessories and lenses available. RAW and JPEG stills shooting
No XLR inputs. Image stabilisation on 18-200mm kit lens not as refined as a traditional camcorder. Still encounters issues like rolling shutter that plague video-enabled SLRs
Given the price of other large-sensor, interchangeable-lens systems, the NEX-VG20 offers excellent value for anyone who prefers shooting video on a camcorder-style body rather than on a video-enabled SLR....
