Which camcorder to buy?

Hi Guys,
It's Sam from Australia again.
I am a complete novice and I wanted to know how which camcorder to start with. I currently have these options, which camcorder would you recommend?

1- JVC GZ-EX355B Full HD Everio Camcorder

4- Sony HDRPJ200 HDRPJ200 Full HD Flash Projector Handycam

Or any other camcorder in the early 300$ range that is available here in Australia.
I would really appreciate your help as I'm totally inexperienced and clueless. I need something that I can make a movie with, something that can deliver a movie with quality and specs that are acceptable in movie festivals.

Best wishes
Sam

Thank you for the info. I will consider that.

Cool. I wish I could let you try mine to show you how handy they are. All I can add is that there is a little rubber pad and a screw underneath that comes up through the base to secure the camera really tightly. There are steel bars that can attach to the sides that further help to protect the camera. It's a very solid construction. I tend to hold the back of the grip with one hand and put my other hand underneath. Oh, and you can have a removable tripod top secured onto the grip all the time.
