I have had mine for a month. I like it, but it is a little overpriced. The reasons I bought it was
1:CCD’s. I do lots of shots with lots of motion (boats, sports, skiing) CCD does not have the CMOS jello cam.
2: 720p 60 Again this is better for sports, motion etc.
3: 35mbit codec. Very nice,
Now the HMC40 is a great camera at a great price. Only problem is CMOS sensors. CMOS is fine if you are doing steady shots etc.
HMC has 720p. Also.
