Ah Jack I have heard very good things about the lumix, my dad has one and raves about it. Ditto the Sony Alpha NEX F3 and the NEX 7, which is actually a DX size sensor in a micro 4/3 body

Take a look at the Panasonic Lumix GH3. It now records 72 Mbit h264 (intra frame) that is very lossless. I like shooting 24p but it will shoot 60fps, even at this data rate. I haven't tried the slow motion feature on top of 60fps, but I would imagine you can push it further as there is a slow motion feature. I've only had the camera a week but am super impressed by the quality. Also does 16MP stills. You can shoot stills at the same time as you are shooting video without interrupting the video recording.
Records on an SD card so slap it right into your computer and start using off the SD card or copy to the hard drive and start using without any transcoding.
