I will be getting back from Afstan in June and I am currently ebaying my Panasonic PV-GS35. I would like to get a new camcorder that does not use tapes. I would like HD, tapeless, compact, 10x or more optical zoom, and would like to be able to do simple scene edits(remove the junk), and burn to DVD. I do have 2 flat screens at home along with a PS 3. Any reasonable recomendations that may meet what I need, hope to keep it under 1k if possible.
 Thanks in advance,
Jack
