            if you can find a Sony HC-1 buy it...the have stopped making it and the replacment HC-3 is more consumer than prosumer. The HC-3 lacks a manual focus ring and external audio outputs.

            They are about $1500 if you can find one.

                stay away from the HC1/HC3. I have compared the picture quality side by side with the FX1 on a big HDTV and the FX1 blows it away. On the computer monitor you wont notice any difference.

                      It is the CMOS vs. the 3CCD that makes the difference in quality.
