? Sony HDR-CX150 as interim camcorder, low/m light

Would a Sony HDR-CX150 be good enough as an interim camcorder? - special need of low/mid light situations (forum group footage in normal/low room lighting)

Got ahold of VMS9 a few months ago, really liked it - I was just about to get Pro-9, when I heard they added more tracks in the new VMS10, so I got that as an interim at least (maybe wait for Pro-10). I was considering getting something like the Sony DCR-VX2100, but then thought maybe I should move up to it (seeing if this is what I wanted to get into) - I like the idea of a small handheld for those inconspicuous times (not dragging around a larger pro camcorder). Surely you guys/gals with pro-camcorders have a smaller second choice.

PM me if you're interested in a VX2000/VX2100. We have one of each to sell, and apologies for announcing it here, but justme brought it up <grin>

I sure as heck wouldn't consider a 150 as anything to be used indoors unless you've got plenty of light.
I own four of em' for skydiving. They suck even at late sunset. If it's just family stuff....they're probably fine, but bear in mind that noisy footage makes for terribly noisy encodes to the web and DVD.
