     I need help deciding which one to get. I will be using this for weddings, birthdays etc... I know one is HD, but I know someone selling me his XL2 for $1300 and I also know someone selling his HDR-SR11 for $600. Please let me know. Or if you have any other camcorders that you would suggest. Thanks

    I would love to move to the xl2.  I guess one of the questions is...Do I want to delve into HD?  You can still get amazing quality with SD, especially with an xl2.  I am not as familiar with the HDR_SR11, but I would lean to the xl2 - 

    And by the way - if you don't go with the xl2, send your friend my way - I'd be happy to buy one for $1300.

    Hey there,

   I would definitely go with the XL2 over the HDR. You have way more to work with on the XL2, as it is a professional camera. Plus if you are doing weddings and other projects with it, clients like bigger camera's that look more proffesional. Not ones that look like a consumer camera, that you could buy at Best Buy.

    I shoot weddings with an hdr hc1 and a sr12.

   I show prospective clients the last clients video, and have never been asked about equipment.....
