I'm afraid everyone is behind the times... DSLR´s WERE the greatest tool for entry level film-making, but now they are starting to fade, while mirror-less cameras try to close the gap between DSLR style cameras and camcorders, just take a look at sony's AX100 4k camcorder and tell me which DSLR out of the box can compare with it (Panasonic's DMZ1000 has several issues which doesn't make it a cheaper alternative). I own a T3i, a great camera, but soon to be replaced with a camcorder (I originally started out with a borrowed Sony FX1 and a Canon XHA1 but only for a very limited time, and I must say, DSLR isn't what everyone says it is, even with Magic Lantern).
