OK here. I never intended to own a video camera. Never wanted videos of my children as toddlers cluttering the house - never watched, but always taking up space. Refuse to buy movie videos. Do NOT want to be wandering around with video camera resting on my shoulder taking videos. Don't want any more cables sitting around, more incomprehensible owners manuals.... NONE OF IT. But....I now have a stallion. And a maybe-grey-stallion-to-be. And people will want videos. And I need a camcorder to take pictures of me riding and driving, and of SO riding and driving - for self-improvement purposes. So.. HELP, what shall I do. When I go shopping for camcorders I end up in the 899 to 1499 range - getting into the digital thing, and then the mini and then... It is like buying computers. In order to be state of the art you start feeling like you have to buy the best or have an obsolete hunk of junk sitting around. I've been trying to get my parents, my SO's parents, anyones parents! to give us the old camcorders they never use. No such luck. So.... what do I do? I could find the funds for an expensive one - if I need to. I could try to buy an obsolete used one - but have no idea what to look for, or how durable they are or...? I had fantasies of getting the digital version, so I could convert video to still and get great action shots for advertisements. But then it appears that you have to buy a FIREWIRE connection for your computer...and it sounds like all that is in its infancy. Anybody have any great advice - or a source to go to for the Idiots Guide to Camcorders.
