Posted: Tue Feb 21, 2006 5:20 pm Post subject: Recommend a video camera |
|
|
Well i shall be going to Poland begining of July and am after a video camera.
Some constraint are:
Money wise it has to be around the $800 although if good give or take a couple hundred.
i dont mind seeing ones for 900 or so though, as i can get some of this stuff cheap.
I had in mind JVC, or a Panasonic. Not really to keen on dedicated dvd-Rom though. Wouldnt mind too much a HDD in it, but would rather a DV tape one. |

| Panasonic for sure. I have bought a few panasonic products, and swear by them. Not a huge fan of Sony, but thats only an opinion. If you can get duty free, some of the prices arn't that bad. |

Oh right, atm, im looking at the JVC HDD cameras although i was put of it because of the camera in my price range doesnt have a good quality in the dark...
Sooo.....
Im probably going to go for a Panasonic NV 300GS it'll be 1249 - GST so around $1100.... But what i want to do is transfer the movie on the tape to my laptop while im over there.... now i dont know how well the pictures will come out after the transfers... (had a look at castles thread in off topic) |
