Now to the final bit PAL or NTSC?

Doesn't matter.  Need to be able to send people both, TV will play both, and going to store on external HD anyway.

1 small negative about tapes. I went on a short hol to Portugal, and took the Camcorder. On playing back my first recording the picture was broken up. I tried a brand new tape but no good. It looks as if there is a bit of crap on the heads, and you try getting a cleaning tape out there. Also wasn't there something about 2 types of tapes with different characteristics and lubricants, and if you use tapes from one on the other type of machine, it can gum up the heads for good. :(

Didn't get round to that - stick to one brand, and carry a cleaner - only needed mine once in 3-4 years
