DC-100 isn't terrible, but you can do better.
If you want to stick with Canon, you can get the DC19 from Amazon, which has a larger CCD, better video quality, and will even take half decent stills to a memory card, for £299

Or the 3 CCD Panasonic VDR-D250 for £330.

I have the Panasonic VDR-D250. Excellent camera. Pictures look good on my HD TV. Got mine from Purely Gadgets.
