Most of my films have be recorded on amature camcorders (£120 - £250) none of which have easy manual focus, zoom and iris. But I now want to shift up a gear. Has anyone got any suggestions for a mid-range(?) pro-camcorder - in the range of £800 (or would that be classed a bottom). I would prefer it to be 4K but if it produces good quality images, then 1080 will be fine. I guess some of you who have become more proficient at film making will have been up the rungs of the ladder and will know the best and worst of the equipment. Could I possibly pick your experienced brains? Any information will be grately received.

PS. and if there isn't a 'General Thoughts' forum section for items that are not directly linked to any of the other forums, is it possible to have one? .
