I have been searching and comparing everywhere on internet for the past 2 weeks, and it seems that the Sony Handycam DCR-HC26 received some very good reviews for the price....is Canon or Panasonic or JVC as good or better? Should i buy the Sony? I'm going to have a kid in 1 month and i just need a camcorder to transfer movies on DVD or on my computer. I need a second opinion. Can someone help me.
