Why not do both at the same time in one unit?
The Canon S3 or S5 have 12x zoom and is a great still camera, as well as video capabilities with sound up to the space available up to 1GB in most cases or more (no clips) and at full setting can do 640x480 30fps
The S5 is the newer one with a bit more features, but likely to cost a bit more

The S3 (which I own also) is fairly comparable and likely to be cheaper by being an 'older' model, but may be harder to find.
