Canon HV10 HD Camcorder

If you've already got an HDTV at home but don't yet have camcorder to match, check out the Canon HV10 HD Camcorder ($1020). This puppy is diminutive in size, but big on features — features like true 16:9 recording in everything from 480 to 1080p, with a 10x zoom, 2.96 megapixel sensor for still images, a Super-Range Optical Image Stabilizer to reduce "shakey-cam" footage, and a 2.7 widescreen LCD. You'll never have another Standard Definition holiday.
