Another Panasonic vote here. A good place to buy is Amazon.com where you usually get a mail-in rebate in the form of airline power adapter and carrying case.
Otherwise, stick to the reputable Japanses brands and make sure it is "Made in Japan." Don't be tempted by the cheap no-brand models, mostly made in China. The video quality is bad, battery life worse, and they have a cheap "feel" to them.
