I have 3 Canon HV30 units that I swear by. Great 24p mini dv camcorder with analog in capability. Full HD imaging senors, great 24p cinema mode. Very popular with indie dilm makers as it works great with film lens adapters. The HV40 is the current refresh model and it adds better 24p support. Prices runs $450-$800 used or new for the hv30 or hv40.
