Camcorders, which do you prefer? DVD, MiniDV, Hard Drive, Flash?

the HDD camcorders should last for quite awhile if you take care of it. Extreme temperatures and dropping the camera (especially while in use) can greatly shorten the life of the cam.

Either way it should last as long as any other camera, in a few years they will have the next big thing out for so cheap you will have to get it anyways...

Don't just read the biggest numbers.

Sorry, but I hate when these numbers get thrown around. The 400 and 490 are the MAX SPEEDS. Think max speed:max wattage::sustained transfer rate:RMS if you want to compare to an amp. Firewire 400 stomps USB2.0 in sustained transfer, and FW800 stomps it even harder.
Don't just read the biggest numbers.

You are actually lucky if you can get 25MBS out of USB 2.0
