I agree 100%. If I already had a good SD camera, I wouldn't be dumping it to buy HD, but being that I was looking to spend $2-3K on a camera, it just seemed to make sense to make the jump now rather then later. Plus, in addition to filming hunts, I hope to get some wedding gigs and I think the "HD" hype may make me a little more competitive in the market place.

If you are only doing your own thing right now, SD is all you need. HD is the future though, so for those that are looking to spend some bigger money right now, it would be wise to just apply it to HD now, instead of loosing the depreciation on the SD camera you buy.
