I am looking for a compact, HD, replacement to my Canon GL2 miniDV camcorder.
There is a taper/friend of mine from France who uses this TG3 camera and his videos are superb

Are there any cameras similar to this Sony model in size and capability and slightly lower price (maybe around $500) that would act as a good replacement? At first I was thinking of going small with the Lumix ZSx models, but not sure if its zoom power is suitable for closeups.
Thanks in advanced.
