HD is a very unforgiving environment. You need tons of ram and a superb video card that will let you edit HD without crashing your computer. You need a program that supports HD editing. And finally you need a HD DVD burner if you want to share your short films. So if you have the capabilites to work in HD DO IT! lol. if you don’t your wasting your time and money doing it.
To me personally I own a Panasonic agdvx100b. i love the camera. It has 24p recording on it as well. in my opinion i find that 24p is nothing special. you hardly notice the difference. If you really really really want the closest picture to film please looking in to getting a DOF converter or better known as a 35mm converter.

and watch the video on the main page. The lenses they sell give you this effect of having a very shallow Depth of field.
if you are starting to get into film Any old camcorder should do. You should buy something cheep and film a few short films and see if its really worth spending money on a 2,400 dollar camcorder that shoots in 24p
