What would you get?

Hi All

I have been offered a gift of either of the following

Olympus C-70 zoom Digital Camera
or
Sony Digital MiniDV Handycam DCR-HC22E.

I can't make my mind up and as I have no experience of either, I would appreciate any views on which would be the most useful.
It would be for general and wildlife (mainly birds) use.

I know this is a wide subject but any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks

Paj ,I do have the Oly c70z,and it really is a good little cam.Not so sure re bird photos,though,but it is good for macro shots,and general all round images.Helen,i think also uses this camera,and she has some amazing Red Kite shots she has taken.Easy to pop in ones pocket,and very easy to use.It has lots of settings,Macro,super macro,landscape,landscape+Portrait,Portrait,night scene,and action shots.Very user friendly.The colours are nice and sharp.It reads quickly to the card.
