Hi All,
Just an info.
Yesterday I had the chance to compare same recorded shots of those cams.
I added same length shots of both cams to the storyboard of my S-4000Pro.
Nothing spectacular in my observation that knocked me from my chair.
Colors of Sony HC3 more natural than Canon HV30.
Pictures of HV30 are brighter but contain irratating "MOAREE" in some
parts of the image.
HV30 may have a wee bit better resolution than HC3
I will stay with my HC3.

They are both excellent cameras with the Canon being more sharp due to the canon lens. The HV-30 has a CUSTOM MODE in which the user can adjust contrast, saturation and sharpness. There are other modes as well such as NEUTRAL and VIVID etc. in the HV-30 menu.

Thanks Lou,
should have known the facts earlier to experiment.
But just had a very short time for testing.
