Japan Trip - MiniDV search

Hello Everyone!

It's been a few weeks since I made a completely empty post on which MiniDV camera to buy.

Now I've done my research and now what I want to know what to ask.

I'm going to Japan in September and I'm trying to decide if I should order a minidv cam on ebay or wait to get there and see what can I find on hardoff and similar stores.

The point is, I want a MiniDV with an english menu. That's can be hard on japonese Sony models. I'm aware that the goal would be a Sony TRV900 or Panasonic PV-GS400 (3 CCD sensor cameras) BUT there aren't any options for them on EBAY or they're really expensive.

Any Recommendations on MiniDVs that I can find there? And how hard would it be to have a 100% japonese camera?

Are the Sony TRV30 and Panasonic NV-GS100 are good options? I value color and video sharpness a lot (:

Thanks!

Video edit recorded on VHS-C JVC GR-AXM910U

I took my JVC out of the closet and shot some footage around my city with my girlfriend and friends during the World Cup final.

Captured with a Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle, running through an Edirol V-4 as a TBC.

Edited in Premiere, no filters — all texture is straight from the tape.
