what should I buy? VX2100 or PD170
 

Is the PD170 worth an extra $800 for the XLR audio jacks? Is that going to come in handy? I do content production... I haven't used any fancy mics yet but it has been considered.

bumpidy bump.

Yeah it definitly worth if u r planing to shoot dvd:thumbsup

Woah..I was thinking an 800.00 cell phone

I have the VX6000 Thats why :-x

the 170 can also record in DVCAM mode... 40mins per tape
but alot less chance of dropout

So what did you buy? Both are good cams.

finally got your work up.. looks great!
