I've picked up a lot of tips in there.
I will definitely go there and try out roughly the same questions as here.
You might also like to consider the HVR-A1(E) as although this doesn't
perform brilliantly in low light, it does have HD and XLR inputs for
greater sound recording control.

That has been very helpful indeed. That camera might suit me very well; it
has become my number 1 item to be researched. I like it because of the
camera's I've used the Sony PDX10 has been a favourite. I think I prefer
small and neat to one for shoulder use. Not least because the camera will
be transported by bicycle. My dissertation is likely to be shot in Romania
and I will be cycling to the locations as well as using public transport.
The small camera is good obviously for that. In addition I quite like the
fact that the camera could be carried quite discretely in a "normal" bag. I
have been to Romania a lot and I must say that I have never had any trouble
there. However it is a very poor place and with that poverty flashing some
expensive camera around is a bit crass and also does create a temptation
for someone perhaps.
So, now I am investigation this one
I have to make sure that it will be okay with Final Cut Pro 5.1.4. This I
will do at an FCP forum of course.
