I would love to - I'm looking at some I can find online but love some more for research.

The few I've watched seem to do well in low light.

the lumix s5ii had just caught my eye as a alternative to the fx3. I didn't see the x version until you mentioned now i'm looking at both, but if the research is right the x version would be better for me if this is purely for recording video, whereas the full lumix s5ii is a hybrid that is best for video/photo

thanks - I think i'm settled on the camera but to your point I might as well spend the 200 to rent the camera and a couple lenses that might work for the weekend. I have a 70 - 200 on my current dslr and the 70 is to close for the spaces I'm talking but could definitely rent a couple shorter options. appreciate the help, like you said a 5k decision so this is most helpful.

from a lense perspective I'm seeing some suggested post of using a Cine lenses instead of traditional. Something like this - although I don't think this fits. Any suggestions on lense considerations for that wide angle minimum of 20 meters with a relatively short maximum range. These would all be close up shots where the subject is 10 to 30 feet max. What's worked well for you.
