Should I choose a single-chip or triple-chip camera?

We recommend you to select according to what you are shooting.

The image quality can be affected by various factors, not simply by the type of the sensor. Triple-chip camcorders are superb in reproducing colours and are highly sensitive. Also, they can offer a superior zoom ratio. Single-chip models can render a more shallow depth-of-field and can achieve excellent sensitivity, equivalent to the 3-chip models.
