Camera?

Ive been looking around for camcorders, and i want a really good resolution one around $400.

if you’ve seen any of my videos you know they are really bad quality, even before they get on youtube. so if you guys could give me some advice. thanks.

I’m actually buying a new camera tommorow! Old one is broken and I’ve got about $300. I’m just gonna get a camera with decent zoom and good quality. The biggest part for me however would be the night vision. I think only sony has a good night shot so I’m probably just gonna go with a cheap sony.

Just go to Best Buy tommorow. I’m going b/c apparently they “Really” cut their prices for black friday. Only draw back, is the line…

Canon ZR series. i have the older ZR85 but i think the new ones are good too. i love mine. it was like $600 when i bought it, but the series is about the $250-$500 range now, i think, i havent really researched it much b/c i dont need a new camera and if i did get a new one it would be a professional grade camera like a Canon GL 2 or something of the sort.

What do you guys think about this camera?

where can i find them and do they have a built in hard drive or is it a mini dvd one… i dont like them.

Search.

I have posted in the other camera threads about CCD chips and what size to look for.

All your questions have been answered before.

kk.

go on ebay…optura 10 or 20 [canon]…or panisonic gs 180…then get a kneko fisheye lense…make sure you get a camera that records to mini DV…nothing else (pain to work with anything else)

mini dvd? i really dont like them. i like the 30 gig harddrives.

w/e mini dv gives you the most editin posibilitys and agruably the best quality…hard drive camcorders are easier to use/get onto you computer tho

okay. nice to know!

But do you need that much… would you want to sort through that much footage?!

the only reasn i say that is because the only size ive been seeing is 30.

is this a good camera set?http://www.amazon.com/Everio-GZ-MG255-Camcorder-Telephoto-Accessory/dp/B000YFMIIS/ref=sr_1_38?ie=UTF8&s=photo&qid=1195785306&sr=1-38

jvc’s are notoriously cheap…however that looks like a nice one…it also comes with a wide angle and telephotic[zoom] lenses…so thats a plus

is the wide angle a fisheye?

no a fish eye is a fish eye and a wide angle is a wide angle, wide angle is good if you wanna show all of something or alot, fisheye is kinda a wide angle semi distorted look, spencer hochberg uses a fisheye lens i belive, you can kind of tell because things look curved, like looking into a peephole

i want a fisheye…haha they look cool.

a fisheye lense is only like 30 bucks, but in this video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuTSJsCsdf4, ‘22-28’ [seconds] is a fisheye lens, the stuff before that is wide angle i believe

here is a fisheye lense…if you want one i would suggest a baby death or a kenko
