What video camera would you recommend for these purposes?

Q. I'd like to get a digital video camera that I can use to record videos of my guitar playing/singing or footage from concerts to post online. So one important thing I'm looking for in a camera is good sound recording capability. I'd also like one that can take an external mic. I'm looking for one under $400.

A. you can consider Canon VIXIA HF M30 Dual Flash Memory Camcorder
# Genuine Canon 15x HD Video Lens delivers unsurpassed image quality
# Canon 3.89-Megapixel Full HD CMOS Image Sensor captures video at 1920 x 1080 resolution
# Canon DIGIC DV III Image Processor provides the ultimate in color and imaging performance
# Dynamic SuperRange OIS corrects a full range of motion

Whats the best camcorder for me to buy?
Q. I need it to be under 400 dollars, have good picture quality, microphones need to be able to work with it and compatibility with imovie on my mac.

A. If you can't stand Mini DV tape, the JVC MG255 gives *decent* video quality with the HDD convenience, and it should work with little trouble in iMovie HD from the iLife 2006 suite. If you have iMovie 08, I can't comment on that. I have a JVC MG555 and it works fine with iMovie HD (06), but I have to delete the first frame of each clip, as there is some overlay ghosting effect (deleting the first frame for about 20 clips takes less than a minute for me).

If you can handle Mini DV tapes, then you have lots of better options. Check out the Canon ZR line for cheap cams with mic input (some of them have it), but I warn you, I bought one and absolutely hated the horrible tape motor noise that I couldn't get rid of (the one I bought had no mic input; I was stupid back then).

Honestly, you aren't going to get "great" video quality for under $400, but because I'm not sure what you mean by "good" I can't guarantee what you'll like. The kind of camcorder that has a mic input is the kind that starts to merge itself into the higher price range.

I recommend you to look at the Canon Elura 100, which won an award on the below-listed site, and has a mic-in. It's cheap too, at under $400.
