Of course there is. Why purchase a SD only camera when a high quality
HD camera that also does SD is available?
There is no future-proofing in media industry but being able to get an
extra year out of an investment can pay dividends. You'll get more use
out of a HDV camera than buying into DV at the end of the wave. Your
business plan may show otherwise though.
Oh, if the price is unbelievable it usually is unbelievable. The
margins on these cameras have been cut to the bone so there isn't much
left for the dealer to cut so you won't find too much price variation
from reputable sellers.
Also check out the Sony HVR-V1 as in my opinion the picture quality is
superior to the Canon.
