Filmmaking : Sony PD170 or Canon XH-A1 ?

I made a few independent movies over the years, mostly with friends camera and stuff, not too experienced with camera. I am more director than a cameraman.


Anyway, 99% of my use of the camera will be for film: cinema, tv...


I went to stores in my area, and I can't get the PD170 or the XH-A1 for the same price (brand new).


I know about the light issues, but I looked in some videos online, and from that short movies it seems to me like the XH A1 makes a better view after all.


What you think will be the best choice for me for FILM making?


P.S,
It will be PAL.

Thanks,
Ethan.
