I have to be honest with you, I am a bit of a quality freak when it comes to video...Searching and searching for the longest time to find something that would offer me the clearest crisp video that I could "stick in my pocket".

Canon does it again. You just have to get your hands on this incredible HDV camcorder. I am definitely upgrading my production camcorders (I currently own XL1, XL1s and XL2). The features and quality of the footage of the XHA1 is over the top! The image quality of the flip out LCD screen is so...
