Q. I'm going to get one in november. under 800 dollars (if possible)
I WAS looking at canon's hg10. But what would you think?
These are what I need on it:
Video light/nightshot
mic input
hd
hdd
Possibly an eye piece to look into (I want it but don't need it)
Give me ANY advice. ANYTHING will help.
the hg21 does NOT have a video light. I have looked at it before. Thanks for the idea though. I've looked at it before and maybe I'll think about it some more.

A. I would suggest Canon VIXIA HG21 AVCHD 120 GB HDD Camcorder
- HD 24Mbps offers the highest bit rate in AVCHD for HD video
- HDD Record up to 45 hours of High Definition video to a 120 GB HDD
- microphone terminal for attaching an external microphone
- Built-in Video Light enables you to shoot subjects in low-light at distances up to 4.9 feet away.

Need a good video camera for 800 dollars?
Q. I need a good video camera for around 800 dollars. and i dont want like a handycam thing, i want a nice solid camera with good video, and audio quality . Any suggestions?
A. Canon HV30 all the way! It's $780, so you'd be under the budget. It's an HD camcorder that records to cheap and convenient miniDV cassettes...and don't let anyone fool you: HDV is a lot better than HDD (hard drive) or DVD based camcorder for the following reasons:
1) better compatibility w/ more editing programs=easier to edit
2) easier to store and archive footage
3) better quality because of less compression
HV30
pros: excellent HD quality picture, amazing color saturation, truly instant autofocus, it also has a 24p mode (to make video look like film, which is good), and a mini-stereo input for external microphones
the mic input is HUGELY important for good audio, considering that NO camera has a decent on-board mic; you really nee to purchase an additional one....I recommend the RODE VideoMic shotgun microphone.
cons: poor manual controls--it's better as a point-and-shoot camera, HD footage is harder to edit, and requires a lot of hard drive space
but considering it's sooo good in automatic mode, it's lack of manual controls isn't too much of a problem....unless you are a manual control freak like me. But even so, you won't find a decent camera with decent manual controls under $2,000, so that's nothing to worry about.
As for media management, that's a problem on all HD cameras; they are a bit harder to edit.
Of course, if you're not totally convinced, there's always the Sony HDR-HC9 (or HC3), but I believe they a bit more expensive...besides they're Sonys :P
Well, I hope that helps....so good luck mitchellg103!
