   anybody own one. what are the pros cons - or if you can recommend similar . tape or 8cm dvd discs? apparently they are quite expensive but with the tapes you need firewire to transfer to your pc. don't know much about firewire TBH yeah off to portugal next week and the missus wants a camcorder:) cheers
