At the prosumer end you need to be looking at the Canon XL1 or XL2 that gives you the option to use 35mm lenses with an adapter. However, I doubt you'll find a S/H XL2 on the planet for under 1G.
I do strongly agree with you, this site needs a video/film section.
How about for close ups of insects and flowers - working on the principle that you can get really good close-ups with a digital compact could these type of camcorders work in that situation?
