Mine will usually be low-light situations... well not so much low lighting as bad lighting (indoor, yellowish).
Go with the Sony VX2000 then. Sony, in general has faster glass on it than comparable Cannon models and the 3-chip HAD technology CCD's make for an excellent low light performer.

Pull both video and caps in through firewire for best results, but don't expect anything larger than 640x480 images. If you can afford a Sony Viao Studio, get it! It's an out-of-the-box solution for DV that will never have an interrupt conflict and the supplied programs (DVGate Still, Motion and Assemble) work faultlessly and intuitively.

If you have PhotoShop, you could probably improve the images somewhat with an ImageReady droplet for color correction, but yellow cast is a bitch to deal with on flesh tones.
