Q. I'm just curious cause i would like to start shooting some videos and upload to youtube or whatever. Right now im just going to use my regular handheld camera and shoot stuff.
I would like to eventually get a nicer camera. Im just wondering what is ideal nowadays. What do most people use? What camera works well will FinalCut or Avid?
Any info would be great. Thanks.

A. You can start with Panasonic HDC-SDT750K, High Definition 3D Camcorder. Its a nice camera and get fairly good reviews and ratings from users. At the moment (23/4/2011), this is the bestselling professional video camera on Amazon.
Are any camcorders good in low light environments like indoors?
Q. I have a camcorder I bought for �235 in 2011 which is 10MP. Indoors it is always grainy and fuzzy except in some very bright lighting. Outdoors it's better. Are there any camcorders available that are sharp indoors and in low light/dark environments and have little/no visible noise/grain?
My camcorder only has ISO controls for photographs and not video. It has a "Night mode" and white balance but no matter what settings I use, I almost always get grainy video indoors even with lights on.
My camcorder is Toshiba Camileo A35.

A. Good low-light means large lens filter diameter and large imaging chip. The large lens allows in more light; the large imaging chip can deal with what little light is available. You have already discovered that small lens diameter and small imaging chip doe not behave well. As camcorders increase in price, their lenses get larger - so do the imaging chips... You did not tell us which camcorder you are currently using, but at your price point, I would guess 30mm filter diameter and 1/6" single imaging chip. or you are using a digital still camera (maybe even a bridge camera) that happens to capture video as a secondary "convenience feature".
For low-light conditions, at a minimum, I use my Sony HDR-FX1. This was replaced by the HDR-FX1000. 72mm filter diameter lens and 1/3" 3CCD imaging chip. If it is really dark, then Panasonic AG-HVX200 with 82mm filter diameter and 1/3" 3CCD imaging chip works well... above this they start to get expensive.
If these cameras are too expensive, you have an alternative... learn to shoot "day for night". ADD light during video capture
