Default HV30 arrived today....

Nice......! Love the IQ on this sucker. External mic input, nice screen, 24p and amazing picture quality. Really nice lowlight performance too!

Highly recommended so far.

I would recommend getting LitePanels Micro camera light. Very good output, no heat, and lasts a long time on the AA batteries.

We use the Mini Plus and the Micro on our cameras.

Also, picture may look good in low light on the small LCD screen, but it may be really grainy once you look at the video on a larger screen.
