HDR-PJ790V or NEX-VG30H

I will be filming outdoor marching bands (low light with lots of motion) and indoor concerts. I don't want to go crazy, and would like to stick with a prosumer unit. Am I better off with the Sony HDR-PJ790V or the Sony nex-vg30h as my main unit? I know Canon has a new units coming out in June, but I've always used Sony equipment? My current older model, an HDR-SR12, will be used for B footage, or cross field footage.

Can someone recommend a path for me? I don't need xlr inputs, however I would love to have two additional mics that will be field level, then sync up the sound when finished. I've read pluraleyes shoud assist me in the syncing.

I was also thinking of getting a new gopro2 unit instead of my older sr12, which has always has focus issues in low light.

Thanks for any ideas nd recommendations.

Or.... Is there a DSLR that can compete? From what I read, the constant refocusing required, a DSLR would not work for me.

The HDR-PJ790V is way overpriced, but so is the Canon G30.

I just bought a HDR-pj710v and it does shoot 1920X1080p60. None of the current Canon Vixias can do that, you have to wait for the G30, June 30th.

I would buy the 2012 model, like mine, but with a viewfinder if you need it. There's no advantage to the top of the line one. That little mic looks cool, but I doubt it's any good.

I can't fully review my camcorder yet because I'm still experimenting. (but so far so good)
