Double Bass Zoom Q2HD vs Sony HDR-MV1

Hi

I would like to buy a small portable Audio-Video recording device to record my DB performance.
Zoom Q2HD and Sony HDR-MV1 are available for a reasonable price.

Has anybody here tried both of them and could recommend me which one would be better.

Zoom Q2HD + accessory pack (tripod..) is 214 €. I have used this device already. Sound is nice and very natural, video is average but good enough for me.

Sony HDR-MV1 is available for 220€ without any accessories. I haven't tried this one yet, only found this rec on youtube. Sounds nice though.
