For my next movie I want to use a MiniDV. I have the money to spend; I just wanted any advice you could give me. Like the choices I have below. What would you recommend? And why? Or what to stay clear away from and why. If you have any other recommendations that are not listed here, I am all ears (or should I say eyes?)
I want a MiniDV because this is not for home use, I know that this is for professional use and I plan on using it as so. Thanks for your time. I also have other post for questions on DV editing and also my web site.

Well the JVC GRHD1 High Definition Digital Video Camcorder is the only high definition camcorder of the bunch but it is brand new... and while its one CCD is supposed to replicate a 3CCD chip very well, it hasn't been proven at all yet becuz of how new it is. I say get some more info and user comments on that one first... otherwise i'd say the SONY DSR-PD150 Pro MiniDV Cam... it is prosummer after all.
