Flash Memory Digital Camcorders?
-
I'm a high school track coach and I'm looking for a new camcorder for practice and track meets. I came across these flash memory digital camcorders which seem very compact and cheap ($100-150). The digital zoom on these seems to be about 5-8x. I was wondering if anyone has used these to capture athletic type video (track races, practice drills, etc.) and how do they perform. Are there any brands in that $100-150 range you preferred or any that were horrible. I'm mostly concerned with the video picture clarity when I'm trying to record a race and I'm 100-150 yards away in the bleachers and at the finish line. This link will take you to the Best Buy website where some of these camcorders are listed: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=abcat0403006&type=category

Answer:
I just bought the canon FS 100. In the specs it says this (Zoom Ratio 48x Advanced Zoom (16:9) 37x Optical/2000x Digital) I've only had the camera for a month but it's great for outside at the park. Even the stills taken outside are good when printed. I bought a 16G sd card, it didn't come with one. I paid 287.00 for it. It seems like a good little camcorder except in low light. I got mine from Tiger direct but check amazon.com prices are usually lower there than BestBuy.

if u r gonna take quick action video like sport, u probably better off with traditional tape video recorder.digital isn't fast enough to capture video like tape.u can easily get a digital quality tape recorder like minidv for under $200.good luck.
