You can try between the Sony's model and Canon's HV20 since that one gets alot of great review. Personally I like these two.

Here are cnet.com's reviews on those 2 camcorders. Both seem about on par, it just really comes down to price and what you are willing to pay for what each offers.
I find a deal for Canon HV20, it is a pretty price. You can have a look:
