Cameras (not vid recorders) these days shoot good video. I have a Kodak v1253 (old now) that shoots 720p pretty well and I now have a Sony 290 that does 720p also. I'll try to upload some test shots for you.

I like to shoot everything in HD, then convert the file to what I need it to be. Its nice to have on PC a nice clear video and if you just need to upload it quick then a compressed version of it is fine for internet viewing.

I know they have great quality, but I would rather have a video camera for taking video. Something that can record hours at a time, instead of minutes.
I already have a camera...

My camera will record for how ever big my memory stick is. Just like camcorder would.


For file transfer, the easiest would be one that takes memory cards or has an HDD.

HDD tend to be in the upper cost range but you can usually find a good deal from time to time.

Sale starts tomorrow.

haha. I know. It does do a good job. Just google it and watch the vids in HD. Be a little forgiving on the vids since Youtube can do a hack job converting.
