What is the best video camera for me?

What would be the best economical video camera to buy to make it easy to transfer video to your PC?

  • I'm looking to buy an economical video camera that is probably around 500 dollars. I just want a camera that makes it easy to transfer your video to your computer and still keep the great video quality so that I can edit it with Vegas Movie Studio and just have fun. Any suggestions??

  • Answer:

    For 500, you can get a really nice camcorder. Really you just want to make sure that you buy a MINI DV camcorder and not another format. True hard drive (HDD), DVD, and even memory camcorders look good, but the easiest to use and the format that the software uses best is MINI DV.The problem with some of the other formats is that it is either hard to load the footage onto your PC (DVD especially) or else it is encoded in a format your editor doesnt support. Now as to what Mini DV camcorder I would recomend Panasonics PV-GS320. It is a solid camcorder and uses 3ccds to reproduce colors accurately see Cnet http://reviews.cnet.com/digital-camcorders/panasonic-pv-gs320/4505-6500_7-32330317.html?tag=lst for more info. Cnet is also a great place to go for general camcorder info.
