Hello I am interested in buying a camcorder. I either want an HDD or MiniDV camcorder. The main two camcorders i am looking at right now are the Sony HDR-HC7 (MiniDv) and Sony HDR-SR12(120Gib, Hard Disk Drive) which seem to be the best of both worlds based on reviews ive done on camcorderinfo.com, and cnet. Now the main reasonses i want the camcorder is to one take good opitical zoom (10 to 12megapixels is good right?), the ability to take good still pictures, and the ability to edit the videos. An extra plus would be to take good low light and regular/nightvision night picture.

any help with info and a realistic comparision of specs whould be nice.
