I need a NTSC HV20 and was trying to avoid buying from "overseas" (USA). Can you find them for sale in the E.U.?
Thanks.

Unlikely from a dealer - probably only from a private sale - eBay?
(Maybe a user who bought one overseas and then brought it into Europe?)

If you're very quick (35 mins.!), there is an NTSC Canon A1 as new on e-bay

....if that interests you at £1.5k

...yes, I just reckoned a swift alert was best in case a cheap A1 would fit CJWG's requirements......

Auction closes so soon I didn't ask, just sent the link. :)

Thanks for the tip, but I don't want to spend that much. I just need a cheap HD camera and quite frankly the HV20 seems sharper than the A1, which is why I'm going for one.
