recommendations for a camcorder?
4 Answers
Hi all,
Im possibly looking for a new camcorder. I have a miniDV one thats about 10 years old but does the job, but it is rather heavy.
Im toying with the idea of replacing it with something more lightweight.
I have confused myself silly browsing all the review sites and camera sites over the weekend, with all the special tricks the camcorders do now (like panasonics 3 second prerecord) and am stuck.
I dont like fiddling with the tapes and have no way of recording them onto a DVD at mo so i dont view them often.
we are off on holiday with the kids and i want something fairly robust but light.
Id like one with a viewfinder if possible, not just the screen.
full HD isnt essential though we do have a 1080p tv
a decnt array of automatic adjustments and good optical zoom would be good too
can anyone suggest anything?
