Q. I plan on Goin to Japan next fall and I also Want to get a Vlog/show goin this fall at my college. What I am asking what would be a good camcorder to do this with? I do not want to use a FLip or the Vloggie type Cameras. I would like to find something with a pretty good Optical Zoom and Great quality. Should I get an HD one or an SD one? Thanks guys!
A. Consumer level HD camcorders have 4 problems. 1) Blurry, fuzzy, out of focus areas closely around people in videos taken by consumer level HD camcorders. 2) Any movement, even a wave or lifting an arm, while in front of a recording consumer level HD camcorder, results in screen ghosts and artifacts being left on the video track, following the movement. Makes for bad video, sports videos are unwatchable. 3) These Consumer level HD camcorders all have a habit of the transferred to computer files are something you need to convert, thus losing your HD quality, to work with your editing software. 4) Mandatory maximum record times - 1 hour, 30 minutes, 8 minutes, 3 minutes � four different times advertised as maximum record time for some consumer level HD camcorders. No event I have ever been to is that short. Either take multiple camcorders or pack up with out getting the end of the event on video.
With a MiniDV tape camcorder, record 60 or 90 minutes ( camcorder settings), 90 seconds or less to change a tape and record for 60 or 90 more and repeat till you run out of tapes.
You can get a Canon ZR960 for $250. It is a MiniDV tape camcorder, has a Mic jack. You will need a firewire (IEEE1394) card ($25 to 30) for the computer and a firewire cable (less than 10) to be able to transfer video to your computer. To say this is not HD, think about this. It would cost in excess of $3500 to get a HD camcorder that could equal the video Quality of a $250 Canon MiniDV tape camcorder.

Does The Vivitar 805HD video camcorder have changeable AV settings?
Q. hey girls and dudes, I was wondering if anyone knew if the Vivitar 805HD video camcorder have AV settings that can be changed? like instead of TV Out it can be changed to TV in? where it might possibly record off the TV. thanks for your time and help peoples!! no rude answers please!
A. Hi Samantha, and welcome to Y!A Camcorders:
The short answer is "no". Even though Vivitar gave their pocket camcorder the oddly-misleading name of "Digital Video Recorder" (which is what set-top video recorders are also called) instead of "camcorder", it does not have any video-in or AV-in features.
Here's the full manual, with all the Video Capture-related menus on page 13: http://www.vivitar.com/files_products/625/DVR_805HD_Camera_Manual.pdf
Very few digital camcorders will work as "analog input VCRs", so don't feel too left-out.
hope this helps,
