I am new to the world of video and am looking at a couple of cameras. I am looking at a couple of models in particular. The HF10 and HG20. I am wondering about the reliability of the flash memory verse a hard drive. Is there a difference between reliability? To me the flash memory seems that it would be more reliable and use less power. Please share your thoughts with someone new to video. I am also open to other cameras in this price range if there are better ones.

yes, flash is more reliable and uses less power. There are no moving parts so it can take a hit.
