mox3772 is on a distinguished road
Default my first camcorder

hi I want to buy a camcorder and have spent a lot of time looking and also visited john lewis to have a look in the flesh. I want to use it for holidays and family stuff I understand that at my budget low light performance isnt going to be great thats fine. i have made a short list and was wondering if anyone could advise my on
the best one, or if you know of another which would be better at around the £200 - £300 bracket. I hope to use imovie on my macbook to edit my movies then burn them to dvd so i can give my friends copies to keep. I have decided to steer clear of the mini dv ones due to the ageing tech and dont want any mechanism noise coming through the mic.

canon fs200 found at john lewis for £269
panasonic sx26 - £209
samsung smx c-10 - around £200ish
sony sx50e - £250

any help is much appreciated as I seem to be going round in circles at the moment. thanks in advance. rob
