I think your friend might be secretly jealous. I have heard good reviews on this camera however it does look a little silly with a pancake lens, but it gives good shots so who cares
I believe that you are using a camera whch costs is around £4000 and a very cheap lens on the market (£200 to £500)... I'm sorry but I recommend you to buy a £3000 to £4000 and then you will get what you asked for !!! Try to put a cheap lens like that to the JVC and you will love the Panasonic :)
@davidje1000 Thanks David - The Tofu vid was shot with a pair of HVX200's -
I now have 2 of the AF100's and for interviews etc they are great with full manual Zeiss cine lenses (Compact or standard primes) or RED pro primes. The consumer grade lenses or any of the auto lenses are a waste of time.
This is a camera that excels shooting in controlled circumstances on sticks or a dolly or steady cam. Handheld - run & gun - I would choose dozens of other cameras over it.

Maybe you should try some 'real' cine lenses on this camera, and then re-review after you've figured out how to use it?
Could be this just isn't the camera for you… I mean not every camera is meant for every job.

What 'real' cine lenses?
By the way: nice video on tofu you made!
Cheers, David.
