What is the best digital Video Camera For my needs?

My video group needs a new camera!?

• So, I'm in this group called Assassins (http://www.myspace.com/assassinsrun) and we do things like make funny videos, but there's a problem. We're working with a commercial digital camera (6.0 Mega Pixels), and it does video, but the quality isn't exactly the best in the world, but not the worst either. So, we're on a limited budget, but we'd like to get a new video camera. It needs to be as high quality as possible but also be as cheap as possible. Any suggestions?

• Answer:

  you can research for a good camera without paying for a subscription. since you did say you are on a budget I would suggest free searches. what is the price range for your group? I shop on amazon.com for many items. some days you can save over $100 on one item alone. I think when a merchant first puts an item on amazon they ask for a lesser price to see how well it sells. example I was looking for a good car seat for my new grandson. regular price was $139.64 I purchased it the same day I saw it for only 37.64. 3-4 days later it was back to full price. I have noticed this many times. check for super saver shipping items too. sometimes it is worth paying a little more if the item ships free. here is a link this good one is regular 329.99 it is on sale today for $199.99 http://www.amazon.com/Canon-ZR800-MiniDV-Camcorder-Optical/dp/B000M4MT58/ref=sr_1_22/105-3956899-3106844?ie=UTF8&s=photo&qid=1191997846&sr=1-22
