the trailing question is whether that 6.2-megapixel mode at 4:3 is actually native, without any scaling or interpolation; there is a 9-megapixel mode at 16:9 that is probably not native, but sony

Creative Technology Vado HD 8 GB HDD Camcorder

$193.00 Est. at Amazon

from roxpert, www.shopping.com
the last camcorder i bought was nearly 20 years ago, believe it or not, a sony tape machine.
from www.amazon.com
unlike the expensive sony camcorder that stays in the closet cause it's too big and where's the charger and the tape, etc.,etc.
from www.amazon.com
even for full price i wouldn't expect it to be anything close to an actual canon/panasonic/sony camcorder.
from www.amazon.com
it looks amazing on my 42" toshiba ,i'd almost say as good as my sony true 1080p dvd camcorder which if i may say is great but those little dvd's only hold 12-15min of video this will do 2hrs.
from www.amazon.com
you can't expect this camcorder to replace your high end sony digi-camcorder but it's the best choice for those fun, spur of the moment videos that even your kids can shoot with ease.

JVC Flash Media GZ-MS100 Camcorder

$325.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i wanted to get a camcorder that recorded onto sd cards so i could place the card into a media reader, download the footage, and edit in sony vegas.
from www.amazon.com
the f 1.8 aperture helps with that and it's much better than say the sony webbie which has an awful f 3.3 lens by comparison (which is a big part of the reason that camera is so bad in lower light).
from www.amazon.com
i use the ms100 for general video tasks, and for some dark and low light video using ir lights - a sima sl-20ir and a sony hvl-irm.
from www.amazon.com
started with a sony 8mm and added a few more.

Sony DCR-DVD850 Camcorder

$420.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
this handycam has everything needed to be the most versatile of all of sony's models with up-to-the-minute technology.
from www.amazon.com
i chose this camera over pure flash options because its video quality is usually rated higher than other sony camcorders, other than hd models, especially at night.

Canon Vixia HF S100 Hi Def Flash Memory Camcorder

$1,055.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i have shot with all types of cameras for many years, my last camera was a sony fx1.
from www.amazon.com
at least from what i can tell, again easy to over come with a fce 4 or sony vegas and many other alterniatvies.
from www.amazon.com
i have compared the vixia to the sony hd video camera and the only pro's i see were increase optical zoom, bigger hd space (if you own a pc/laptop you know hd tends to die from years of use), and
from www.amazon.com
sony playstation 3 to the rescue.
from www.amazon.com
instead, i purchased a sony hdr-cx500v and blows away the hfs100 in both low light performance and reduced camera shake.
