Both are great cameras. They have better reviews then solid state cameras. Only set back is when you transfer to the computer for editing 2 hours of video takes 2 hours to transfer. I went with a HF100. Records to SDHC cards. I like the camera so far but i havent done much playing around with it yet. Bought it for vacation and i am planning on using it this year during shotgun season.

Lots of good camcorder reviews here:
