    The PMW-200 is an excellent camera for users wanting the very best image quality. with it's 4:2:2 50Mb/s recording and 1/2 inch sensors, the PMW-200 excels in situations where lower light levels would cripple other cameras with smaller sensors. The SxS card system it uses is very robust, with the ability to close off recordings in the event of a power failure, something that just isn't possible with cameras that record using SDHC or Compact Flash cards. Sony manufactures their cameras to the highest standard, so you know that everything just "works". The PMW-200 produces highly compatible recordings with all of todays modern editing software. If you really must have a work-horse that will perform day-in day-out, this is the one to go for!
