Default Advice reqd on purchasing a decent Digital Camcorder

Looking to purchase a digital camcorder, not too bothered about still image
capturing.
Main requirements a
1: Excellent video quality(obviously)
2: Best available indoor video quality(tried a Canon MV6i & very
disappointed against my Old sony Hi8 brick)
3: quite compact
4: reliable
5: not too bothered about the bells n whistles, probably only point & shoot,
but if they come with the video quality you never know!!

thinking about some of the Panasonic 3ccd cameras on the market?
Max price looking to pay £750(Panasonic GS250) but the cheaper the better
without sacrificing video quality especially indoors
Any advice welcome

Hi Wull
Great Post Wull I am in the same position. I Want to buy a mini Dv cam but
can't make my mind up see my earlier posts to this NG.
I found reviews on http://www.simplydv.co.uk/ Helpful but saw the Pany you
mention was not rated well at Indoor light conditions?
Still researching Leaning toward Canon. Most of the Guys on this NG seem to
Favour Sony though.
Good Luck let us know if you come to a decision.
