 Response to previous question, 2005-11-25
In regards to whether or not you should keep your old camera, that's up to you. Really, most people are turning their video into digital anyways, so it's really not a question anymore. This just facilitates that process. However, keep in mind one thing: digital items fail. Then again, so does analogue. But now instead of having 7 tapes and only 1 failing, you have 7 hours in one spot. Personally, I'd rather this than the old tapes.
Also note, this is the first release of a HDD based video camera. Either A, the price will come down and you'll kick yourself in the butt, or they'll keep coming out with better versions quickly for a while. But this is mostly based off the iPod frenzy. It's just a standard JVC camcorder made to store the information on a different format.
