No money, but want to use a professional machine, and don't want to spend money on the soon-to-be-obsolete 100p; considering the development trend of camcorders, I should cater to it. For now, I will look into Sony's HD1000C model, which was launched in December last year. This model supports Sony's own hard drives, which is quite a nice feature. It can save on video tapes, but the downside is that the lens and viewfinder are small, and the 1/3-inch CMOS image sensor is far inferior to CCD. However, Laozi once said: "There is no greater calamity than not knowing when one has enough; no greater fault than the desire to possess more. Therefore, he who knows when he has enough will always have enough." In my opinion, this model is pretty good, an ultra-value package that is cheap and comes with plenty of features. What do you think?
