What does MP stand for when dealing with camcorders?

Q. I'm trying to buy a HD digital camcorder, but I'm not good at knowing what ones are good. I just want a Basic camcorder. Anyone know any good ones. Or can tell me some good features a descent camcorder should have.

And has anyone heard of the SVP™ HD T-400 camcorder? If so is it good? Cuz thats the one I was going to buy.

A. MP means megapixels. The MP rating means nothing for video as the video pixel size is pre-defined. MP does give an indication of the resolution possible with still photos. Personally, i ignore the MP ratings when selecting a camcorder.

i also don't like memory card video particularly, i am more of a tape guy. the camera is very compact but that comes at a price. the lens does not have optical zoom so framing pictures will be hard. it is not possible to "crop" video after it is shot like you can do with still photos.

another problem typical with this class of camera is they cannot shoot video continuously, ie it would not work to record a wedding. but it would be great to have in your purse to get "candids" at the reception.


Can someone tell me a good digital camcorder?
Q. I want to try and find a good, cheap digital camcorder. I want one that can record a TV if it's hooked up as well as regular video. If you can recommend one, please tell me where I can find it as well and it's price. Thanks.

A. What you are looking for in a camcorder is the "AV passthrough" or "Analog/Digital bridge" feature. Not all camcorders have this capability. Check the Panasonics - like the PV-GS320, I think. There are a few others.

The ratings and reviews areas at camcorderinfo.com has the camcorder features and comparisons - you may need to read through the reviews to find what you are looking for. They also - typically - have the prices and suggestions on where to buy online.

If you are buying over the internet, don't get scammed. BEFORE you buy, ask the camcorder forum over at cnet.com for feedback on whoever you think you might buy from...
