Strange as I'm comparing two camcorders that are very different in
price but I need a bit of input.
I am in NTSC-land just in case that makes a difference.
I'm looking for a SD MiniDV camcorder that is decent in low light -
without using nightshot.  I'm checking out used trv19's and hc90s on
ebay along with a few hc96's.
How much worse is the 19 than the 90/96, in low light conditions?  I'm
not talking about total darkness, just a candle lit room, or standard
low light conditions one might encounter in a home.
My main camera is a HC3, and that doesn't do well under those
conditions; so having a secondary SD cam for this type of use is
probably a good idea.
