Note that none of them will ship until March.
I've had my heart set on getting the older Sony HDR-FX1 some times during this coming year. Bt the specs in this new breed of Sony camcorders have me pause to perhaps re-think this. I.e. for the SR-12:

None of them are 3-CCD, only 1 CMOS, but it's 2008, so maybe overall, the compromise would be worth it. A good/rarely used FX1 can be found for about $2000 USD.
I'm in no rush and prefer looking at my pre-purchase options carefully.
Thanks.
