Philip Johnston at HD Warrior, who has been a fan of the Panasonic AG-AF100, is getting an FS100, and may even sell his AF100. He's also just sold his Canon 5D Mark II. HDWarrior: Now filming 1080 50p as from June 2011
Omar Sattaur took a look at both the FS100 and the AF100, and he's not too sure which is better; the lack of built-in ND filter, and a single memory card he thinks are the FS100's two biggest problems: oiomar.tumblr.com: Sony FS100 VS Panasonic AF101
Steve Landon-Smyth while acknowledging that the FS100 is not good for ENG work, thinks it is a good choice for those that can't afford the PMW-F3 or a RED. He tweeted:
Unlike HDSLR the FS100 outputs full res image out HDMI. Up 2 RGB 444 8bit. Still not HD-SDI 10bit but much less $$$
FS100 will output SMPTE timecode out HDMI. Aja is working on reading that data in order to convert frame rate 2 what was shot
Last night while speaking 2 the biggest 5DmkII fan and supporter about HDSLR accessories, his comment 2 me "buy the FS100".
I've seen screen grab analysis between FS100, 4/3 sensor, and full frame sensor (HDSLR). FS100 wins. No contest.

Paul Antico at NeedCreative has an FS100 on order, and compares it to the AF100:
AF100 can look good in certain situations (see #TheVisualmakers hotel footy) but FS100, F3 beat it overall
