Q. I've been searching for a camcorder and I narrowed it down to two different camcorders, I don't really see a difference in them other than the digital zoom and price but is one a lot better than the other or are they basically the same? I'm not very good at picking out a camcorder.
JVC GZ-E200 v.s JVC GZ-EX210
JVC GZ-E200 v.s JVC GZ-EX210
A. Digital zoom is useless and should be disabled when you get the camcorder. Use only Optical zoom.
Product comparison:

The two cameras you listed are the two middle cameras in the comparison table.
The EX210 has wifi, high speed video capture, pet detection and certain art effects that the E200 does not have.
Whether these are important enough to you to justify the difference in $ is up to you. The things that make the real differences that impact video quality will be lens filter size, imaging chip size and video compression. And between these two camcorders, those specs are the same. BTW, neither has a mic jack... so just a heads up on that.

What is the best budget camcorder to live stream high school athletic events?
Q. I need a high quality camcorder no more than $300. We will be using it to stream high school sports live, which brings me to my supplement question. Supposedly, I know someone who knows how to set up this live streaming. But how would this be set up exactly? You would obviously need an internet connection (wifi or ethernet), but I'm not sure we have access to this.... Is it possible to use satellite streaming? Or is that impossible without internet and would it be very expensive? Thanks!
A. If "know someone who knows how to set up this live streaming" then start with them on which camcorders to investigate.
"Satellite streaming" means there is a satellite uplink (including a big dish and transmitters and such) and someone's paid for transponder space and time. It also presumes a "satellite downlinks" and access to processing the feed. I won't assume anything, but I don't *think* this will be available to you.
At $300 you are basically at the entry level for consumer grade camcorders. While these are typically well made electronics, I cannot characterize them as being "high quality" relative to video broadcast standards. Since there are no consumer camcorders that can digitally stream the video over USB until you hit the $800 range (like a Canon HV40, or any others using miniDV tape media storage will work because they use firewire), the best you can do is stream analog video.
So, given your budget - which is likely not enough - we have:
Any camcorder with AV-out. This is pretty much any camcorder - but you need to be sure the AV-out can be used to monitor what the camera can see - again, pretty much any camcorder. This plugs into an "Analog/Digital converter". The A/D converter plugs into the computer. Then the "someone who knows how to set up this live streaming" can finish up... including the connection to the Local Area Network that connects to the internet...
Use a tripod or other steadying device. Consider using a camera that uses a wired remote. The control is mounted to the tripod handle and controls zoom and other things. Use the AC adapter and be sure the camcorder's "auto sleep" is disabled. You are using a camcorder in a manner for which it was not designed.
Some Sony and Canon camcorders have a combo AV/remote port. You can do one or the other - not both at the same time. Some camcorders use a LANC. This will work great. As far as I know, the least expensive with a separate LANC is the Canon HV40... then comes the Sony HDR-FX7 (I think). These are both more than you want to spend.
