Mrudul, I hope you buy the Mark IV soon. Maybe, then you could think of gifting me your 50D...

On a serious note:
The analysis sure helps a layman. But what I was wondering was that if we do an overall cost benefit analysis of an HD camcorder vs the Mk IV (inclusive of accessories) in terms of video shooting for same quality, which would you think would fare better?

The obvious Pros and Cons have already been put forward by you, but just an overall picture maybe?
