- The AG 460 was a good camcorder in its day. It had (has) its problems, but
- compared to a single chipper like the 450, it was descent. By the same token,
- it can't compare with a 3 chipper. I don't usually like Panasonic. But the
- SuperCam (3 chip) looks really nice for about $7,000 USD (well the specs,
- anyway) It seems better than the JVC GYX2b (same class).
