What is the best camcorder for film making under $600?

Q. I am an independent film maker in college, and im looking to buy an HD camcorder but im not sure what camera will provide a film look and be under $600 at the same time. PLEASE HELP!!

A. Canon HV20 no questions. Maybe the HV30, but I don't think it is good enough to pay that much more, almost 40 bucks. And also you will want a decent shotgun mic if you want good audio which could run another 100 dollars. So if you have a $600.00 budget this is what I would get....

Canon HV20 from: http://www.topchoicedigital.com/viewproduct.aspx?id=9956788&l=Froogle
Adzen ECZ 990 Shotgun Mic from: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/3646-REG/Azden_ECZ_990_ECZ_990_Super_Cardioid_Shotgun.html
Then invest the other approximate $100 into lighting, or making something that indymogul.com has made that you could use in your videos, check them out.

What is a Good Camcorder under $600?

Q. I'm looking for a camcorder under $600 (preferably) that is good for video blogging, like Youtube and just videoing at home, etc.

I would prefer something that is HD and is able to film in a fairly decent quality at night.

I do not want a Flip camera or something similar to that.

Thanks!

A. I recommend Canon FS11 Flash Memory Camcorder with 16GB Internal Flash Memory $569.99. The FS11 provides outstanding features such as 48x Advanced Zoom as well as an SDHC card slot for extended storage of your once-in-a-lifetime memories.
