I'm not sure this is comparing apples to apples. DCR-HC52 has 40x Optical zoom vs. just digital zoom. It has a lowlight feature called "Nightshot plus" at 0 lux. And records in a format other than MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 (I consider a big plus for quality and editing issues).
I'm returning a Samsung SMX-F34 ($280) and replacing it with this. Sure it doesn't use tapes, but, the video quality in MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 is just plain bad at these price points.

Got the last one (according to the sales dude) in central CT for $132.48 after tax.
Note: it does not come with a MiniDV tape or a firewire cable and the battery it comes with usually lasts for only 90-100 minutes at a time, so a second, possibly longer-lasting battery (Sony NPFH50), is recommended.

I know I used a part of the Target website not too long ago to find out the inventory of an item at Target. Does anyone have the link for that for this item?
