Don't get hyped into the digital zoom numbers, regardless of how many "times" the digital zoom can go, it still sucks. Its no better than opening a picture in photoshop and just zooming in. The pixels just keep getting biggerand bigger until that bodacious babe on the far side of the beach becomes a blurry mass that looks several times uglier than she should.
Furthermore, if Digital8 is a failing format, how much longer will the tapes be sold? Theres nothing like having a company pull the rug out from beneath you just as you invest in their technology.
