Is Sony Hdrhc1 Camcorder Really That Good?

I've read many reviews about the Sony camcorder Hdrhc1 and it seems like it is great amature camcorder for HD and quality is unbeatable. I really want to purchase this camcorder but I'm afraid I will regret it. Does anyone have any comments on this camcorder or prefer something else? The street price i found from cnet was bout 1700 and Newegg has it for about 1600 with free shipping... Is that a good deal?

HDV 1080i is more than twice the lines horizontally and twice the width vertically. That is about 4 times the picture information over DV. If you have 4 times more info, what do you think

The gotcha here is editing. New editors for Sony, Adobe, Avid, and others now do HDV. The system requirements are high, so to edit, you may need to look at your computer. Not sure about this camera, but the 3 chip HDV Sony's allow you to record in standard DV too or export as DV. Another consideration is that for the interim, you will need to either write your edited product to DVHS, a format that will only play on a PC (or HTPC), or downconvert to MPEG-2 for DVD. If you have a plan on how to play it back, you can then find a fit for software. And when you find software that fits, you can then determine what you may need to do for any computer upgrades, if any, that will help.

    Cool new mp3 player (12)
    I found this new mp3 and just wanted to share with yall. I think the design is nicer than the
    Ipod. I really want to trade in my IPOD 5th generation wiht Video or whatever you call for this
    thingy. It just looks so sleek or futuristic. Well I don't want the pink one though. Its battery
    life is better than that of the ipod. They come in a 20gb and a 6gb. Also doubles as a file
    harddrive. Here's a link to the site to see some specs and stuff.

    so yea (5)
    both cams are small, both are light, and both are 5 MP...but i was GROSSLY dissapointed in the sony
    T7...being a previous owner of two other cybershots (the last one being a p92 -> 5MP) i expected at
    least equal performance. problems with the sony...daytime shots are excellent, so are close
    ups...but once you get into using the zoom or shots that require the flash, there was a tremendous
    amount of noticable noise in the pictures...it was so bad i had to dig up all my old digi-pics to
    make sure i wasn't seeing stuff. so even with other digi pics there is a little noi....
