Great, thank you David!

I've made several short films already, I've just never been involved in the technical side of the films (silly I know). I would not be operating the camera myself, it was just the offer of financing a camera that came my way - hence just wanting to know what is best as an investment for my crew to use!
Definitely will take that advice into consideration for my personal use though!

I've been told either Sony A7s or Pano GH4 is the way to go

Fantastic, thank you Guy! A camera was never going to be my priority however the budget I mentioned was offered specifically for a camera - we are hoping to cover audio and lighting gear with crowd-funding but I will absolutely be using your list when it comes to that point!
