Any good sites with reviews for a mini dv camcorder?

Yes, you would notice a difference. Not so much going from 680k to 1.333MP ( some more lines of video resolution, but really the extra pixels are for stills), but the size of going from a 1/6" to a 1/4" makes a big difference in light sensitivity.

However, since you already own a ZR 20 and you have already purchased the ZR80, you shouldn't second guess your purchase. I am sure the ZR80 is a good cam. Plus, it was only $331. And you are familiar with the Canon nuanances, since you owned one previously.

I hope you are right. I could have purchased a sony with a 1/4" for only 417. I just did not like the touch LCD. I was afraid it may be more prone to breaking. It may not, I just thought it would be.
My ZR20 was almost three and a half years old, so I imagine the ZR80 will be an improvement.

we were looking at the JVC GRD30 and 70 models. We did compare them to a Samsung and the Canon on the same TV. In the viewfinder they all looked fine, but on the TV, the JVCs were very blue.

I ended up with the Canon 'cause it had a 16X9 mode, and we have a widescreen TV. I got tired of hearing my wife complain that she looked fat in the home movies cause of the tv. lol
