So I got the Sony TRV350 last month which happens to be a Digital8 camcorder. I used it to video a baseball project I was working on. So I buy Sony's biggest battery and about 30 Digital8 tapes so I can finish this thing. After I shoot all the footage, I come home and edit it on Premiere for about two weeks straight. It's shown at the high school and it's a huge sucess. So now I'm getting a bunch of orders for videos and some other offers as well such as birthday parties and the likes of that. A couple of days later, I head over to Fry's and stumble by their camcorder section. And I find the Canon GL2. I try it out on the display and it looks fantastic. The picture was excellent, the camcorder was fairly light, it handled great. So I have fallen in love with this camcorder. I can get it for about $1800 shopping around eBay. But I've invested a lot into the other camcorder including tapes and a huge battery. I can return the camcorder itself since I bought it at a place with a great return policy. My question is would it be worth it to try and sell the battery and tapes and buy the GL2 or should I stick with the inferior one?
