Trv900 is too old, IN 3ccd we use all of the following: TRV950 / Canon GL2 / VX2100 It depends on what you shoot. Overall I would recommend spending a little x-tra $$$ and get the VX2100, (sony) IT IS A BAD M.F. It is INCREDIBLE in low light and the stabilization is awsome. The GL2 has a awsome 20X optical zoom and is less than half the weight of the VX2100. The TRV950 is just a great back up cam for us. It depends on your budget but all three are
. If your doing studio / controlled shoots go with the VX2100. We only shoot club / beach spring break footage with the TRV950 cameras, they are DISCRETE and cheaper to replace! Hope this helped-
