I have that camera.
well i bought it when I was in japan, a little higer end.
you want to go miniDV. with HDD, you will run out of space fliming in HD, and then need a computer to offload everything. the offload time of an HDD to copmuter is the SAME time has a miniDV. you can carry miniDVs, and have dual storage essentially.. the miniDV and a hard drive. I think on a miniDV you can get 2 hours of 1080i/720p.
as far as editing is concerned, obviously that is done on the computer, and between HDD and miniDV the quality will be the same. also just like with film, you can never take enough pictures or video, so be weary of the HDDs and how fast you will run out of space.
that is truley the best way to go if you are going to be filimin in HD
