I have a few of the M-80's but not the m-80xt's. I really like the ones I got, my only complaint would be that when there is a lot of motion the picture is sometimes blurry. I just looked at the xt's specs and i guess they have some sort of new technology that eliminates the bluriness. So im guessing they should work out pretty good for you. I was thinking about picking up a couple new cameras so post back later and let us know how they do.
