    I'm looking for one but then was thinking, my digi cam takes video, shouldn't I just upgrade that to something that does it better?

    Anyways if there are advantages to a camcorder still, I am looking for one that uses only flash memory and takes decent movies. Would prefer 720P but the big thing I am wondering is, how do I tell if the pic is going to be grainy and worthless? What specs like lens or CCD should I check?

    Is the last one which is super small going to be giving up a ton in pic quality to the other non-HD Canon?

    Thanks
