Is the Canon XF 605 not the best quality / size / price compromise of the moment ...?

But the image quality will remain more digital than a C70 for example... which is not a problem in many reports...

But that's only a 1" sensor, weighs 2Kg, measures 168 x 173 x 333 mm and costs more than £4000 in the UK. 

Probably just the thing for some people (it's well loaded with potentially useful pro features, like SDI output), but it's not hard to see why higher-end camcorders have become a niche product especially if you're a video + stills person.

I'm only an amateur, but what drove me to switch from camcorders to 'stills cameras with video' was the manufacturers removing viewfinders from all but the higher-end consumer camcorders, and them getting almost too small and lightweight to hold in both hands (for stability) - I find the traditional camera shape much better to hold two-handed.
