I'm looking into buying a mini-dv camcorder but my choices are sony,panasonic,jvc, and canon....which 1 of these normally has the best picture quality..based on you all's experience???
That's a bit too short-sighted. The brand is not the only factor to take into consideration. Individual models all have their strong points and weak points. And how much are you willing to pay also makes a big difference in what you can get...
