I'm in the market for a mini-dv camcorder.

I'd like to keep it under $600 and am looking for whatever model/brand
will produce the best looking video. It's going to be used for home movies, etc, nothing professional.

From what I can tell most all the camcorders in this price ranger have
650K CCD's - so I suspect there isn't much difference in them, less
extra features.

So any recommendations would be appreciated.

Or if anyone knows any good forums to read up on them/reviews.

thanks
