thanks man.. appreciate the feedback!

i've seen the video and pic samples from steve's site and that high quality 9mb/s sample is better then my minidv stuff... my fuji 6megapixel camera does the same as the sanyo in picture mode, but the sanyo does a 10x zoom versus my 6x still camera... steve does recommend the sanyo tho...

i've yet to see a sample of the toshiba... so i'm still completely undecided...

alot of friends are telling me to ebay my fuji6900z and just get the sanyo since it does the same or better quality in pictures and great video from the samples that we've seen.... the fuji has served me extremely well over the years tho...
