Class 4 cards can handle 17mbps. A faster card won't improve the video quality but can make it faster to transfer the video onto your computer (very slightly). But there is a chance your camera...

If you read the title of the first video you posted, it is comparing the Hv30, which has a CMOS sensor, to the Panasonic HDC-SD5, which has CCDs. In the video, the Panasonic looks mush better. So...

The ZR series are POSs, so don't even go there, how about the Panasonic GS320? A GS300 is even better if you can find one.

Well, if you look in the background of that video you can see another person filming with a $2,000+ camera, so that's probably what this footage is from as well.

Actually the hf100 has excellent low light capabilities. I've never seen the HC96 to compare them.

We can't really tell you if it's 'worth it'. Do you have $700 to throw around and really do a lot of filming? Then you might want a new one. Otherwise your camera seems fine, HD is still HD...

In the last picture you had up, that drop down bar is set to PAL widescreen and showing 720x576 in the info boxes. Can you change that to something else (that works)?

Don't the new cameras have smaller sensors? That would give them worse low light performance. But I would value the prerecord and face detection features.

I would really like to see them make...

1. I was wrong about 45 seconds, but heat does cause sensors to get noisy and for this reason the Nikon D90 has a 5 minute limit for HD videos. I'm not sure about other cameras.

The best thing to do here is.. nothing at all. Get your camera, get your SDHC card (Best Buy has 8gb cards for $30), and film away. It DOES work.

Why would you try to format an SD card?
