Anyway, the long and the short of it is that I want to get the best sub 2000 (Canadian dollars) HD camcorder within 30 days and with the technology being so new I am having a hard time debating the pros and cons.
My wishlist:
- low light HD recording
- accessory shoe for adding a better microphone (i.e. shotgun)
- It seems HDV is still the best option because HDD has lesser quality video (?)
- I am not so sure about AVCHD because I am not confident that a camcorder with that technology will be able to get updated (firmware) well enough to keep up with the growth of this promising technology (?). Right now I understand it is so-so.
- Must have true 16:9 aspect
- low noise
So the question. If you HAD to buy one today what would you buy?
AND, what if you waited 1mo?

Thanks in advance.
