the jvc takes hd video, the canon does not. Just make sure you don't jump/move super abruptly with the jvc because it uses hard drives. It looks like manual controls are limited and hard to access. Can't find much for tech specs, but if you have the manual, look through it and try to record the highest resolution that isn't interlaced. Also it is avchd, so you will need a program that can handle it or convert it. Lastly, you are right about the canon being better for stills. both are a little dated, but you should be able to get a very decent image out of them
