Hi guys, thought i'd popp my head in and ask what your thoughts are on this camcorder. Prices are very high here in sweden compared to the US (where i read reviews and so on) so allthough a camera may cost more in Sweden it's actually a worse camera then in the US. So to pump up my self esteem i thought i'd ask you guys about it.

Fun thing is that this camcorder, which shares the same imager as the new HC44, actually has features has more features then the HC44. Whats even more fun is that the new one also costs alot more then the "old" 2005 HC39E.

Features such as an active foot/shoe/socket (it doens't even have a cold foot/shoe/socket), compact body and lower price (or at least the same price, i count that as a feature hehe) are missing from he new camera.

What i can't shake though is that for the price of this camera i could have gotten a Sony DCR-HC96 in the US... which stings... so please, some positive words on this perticuler cam?
