Best Prosumer Camcorder?

I have done a decent amount of freelance work but I really need to get some better equipment. I’ve always been a fan of Sony’s products but I heard that Panasonic has a better “film look” compared to Sony’s current models. I’m looking to spend around $3,000 on the camera itself not including any accessories (any recommendations on the accessories would be appreciated as well) I might even consider some models above $3,000 if the performance matches the price difference.
