Is it a good idea to ask about camcorders here?

Anyway, I'm thinking of getting a camcorder but can't figure out which is the best even after arduous research. It seems the Canon FS series is the best for my budget, but friends say Sony is better while shop owners prefer JVC Everio.

Built-in hard drives are very attractive. Are there any advantages the Canon FS have over JVC Everio? Clearly, SD storage is inferior to a hard drive.

This.
If you're going to go Sony, look to see if you can find an older and more solid model.
I have a DCR 110 (or something similar). Just the right size and has decent picture quality.
