@Magdy – The NEX VG10 isn’t even available yet, so a true comparison can’t be made. But one is a video camera and the other is a still photo camera that shoots video (which means you face some challenges in setting up shots with DSLR cameras that you don’t face with regular video cameras). I’ll take a wild guess that the Canon will shoot better looking video…but from experience I can tell you the Canon will be a bit more challenging to use, again because it’s a still photo camera that shoots video.

A critical question now is, are there or will there be adapters so you can attach lenses from different manufacturers. I found this cool guide to all the different lens mounts around wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_mount#List_of_lens_mount_types

And the other minor buzzkill on this camera is records interlace, not progressive. Philip Bloom the DSLR authority says this:

“One thing that stands out, but not in a good way is the 1080i 60i recording in the US….but we need 1080p!!”
