The PC120 is similar in performance to the excellent
TRV30, with a picture quite noticeably sharper than
the PC9 - but artifacting may also be more evident.
For sharp macro work (see your earlier post...;-),
I would prefer the PC120 (and I use the PC100...).
The PC120 is small, the PC9 is very small, and
the microMV is tiny. The 9 is about as small a camera
as one can easily control hand-held - though the micro
opens new possibilities for onobserved video work. I clip
the 9 to objects or to a pole for some work now - but
having cameras that can be concealed all over a location
close-in is interesting... ("multi-camera-fly-on-the-wall"
video! ;-).
