I'm looking at Canon MV600i (PAL) and Canon Optura 20 (NTSC), both cost pretty much the same. Here's the tricky part, although MV600i uses PAL having 625 lines, but the CCD resolution is only 800,000 comparing to Optura's NTSC 525 lines, with a CCD resolution of 1,330,000. Can anyone suggest which one is a better solution? Thanks a lot
