Will you please help me with the choices? Yesterday, I checked a Sony Model, it is flash drive based, with a capacity of probably 3 GB, & was priced at 27,000/-.
There was another Sony, which was DVD disc recording with 90 mints recording.
I do not want to buy above 20k, so can you guys pls suggest. Also please give your opinions on Canon.
Thanks.

You're facing one of the most meaningful periods in your life and I know just how you feel. I haven't kept myself up-to-date on the camera market for some time and can't give specific advice on models. However, keep in mind that still shots with a movie camera is just an add-on and cannot compete with even a cheap still camera. The reverse is true for movies on a still camera. And don't underestimate the lasting value of still shots compared to movies.
I suggest you buy both a budget still camera and movie camera. There are many good still cameras under 10k, and entry-level movie cameras not much more than 10k.
I've always had doubts about the reliability of direct-DVD movie cams. This was proven recently when a friend of mine shot an important family event with such a camera, and it later turned out that no useable movie was recorded!! Probably a poor-quality disc. Though somewhat less convenient, tape-based cameras are more reliable.
When is the baby due? If it's still some way off, perhaps I could do some market search and come up with more specific suggestions with currently available models.

Yes PimPom u r right; my whole paradigm & meaning of life seems to have changed. The baby is due in March 2009. Thanks for your advice; can you please then help me with some more details so as to shortlist certain models.If I can really get something below 10k it will be gr8. As per your advice then do I get myself a digital camera, such as Canon A 560, which retails somewhere around 8 k? Or Do I get a movie? Choices??
Looking forward for replies.
