I've already got a camcorder and don't need this one, though I'm really
tempted to upgrade and sell my old one.
Canon has the best CCD on the market today. They are far above the rest
in picture quality. The most amazing features of this camera are the
20x optical zoom which will get you close to the action without
pixelation on the digital format. (you won't see any squares in the
image when zooming in)

It's $359 + tax at Best buy so the total would be around $390. It's
brand new and has never been powered on or unboxed except maybe by
Canon...has all warranty cards, etc. I'm looking to at least get $350
out of it and have a Manufacturer's Mail-in Rebate that I can send in to
drop the price by $50 if the buyer has no problem with me cutting the
box. I'm at ext 2383 if you have any questions and have the camcorder
here on campus.
