Default Camcorders....????

Hey Guys, Sorry this is a little off topic, but I really trust my S4 buddies. I wanted to find out the opinions of my very trusted AW member friends, I just bought the Sony DCR-HC85. So I was wondering which one is better the DCR-HC85 or DCR-DVD201. The HC85 is a miniDV, and the DVD-201 which uses a mini 3' DVD. If you guys could give me recomendations of which one to buy, I would really appriciate it. I am using to tour the whole of Europe this Summer. Thanks a lot

Default I would go with the miniDV recorder. The media

is more accessible and should be cheaper in the long run. The DVD is nice if you have a laptop to immediately offload the data to a massive HD.

I still like the miniDV.

I prefer the MiniDV myself. I own the Sony DCR-TRV33 and I love it.
