ok,
im looking at 2 cameras right now.
Sony HDR-HC3 and Panasonic PV-GS500
(this is HDV) (this is 3ccd)
im gettin a new mac with 2gb of ram and about 320 gigs of hard drive space.
planning to edit with Adobe Premiere or Final Cut Express HD.
im wondering approximately how much hard drive space each takes up. ive heard both take up 1 gig of hard drive for every 10 minutes of footage but can that be true?
also im wondering does HDV take forever to import and export? how long compared to the 3ccd panasonic pv-gs500?
thanks

Yeah but do you have the software/hardware to take advantage of that? No. So go with the other or you're just wasting money on something you cannot use.

save your money meaning, instead buy a cheaper camera therefore you are saving money.

YESSS...i think the HDV cameras are a waste of money. IF you want an HD camera buy that new XD cam from sony!
