A. DO NOT GET A DVD based camcorder.
DO NOT GET A DVD based camcorder.
Did I mention... DO NOT GET A DVD based camcorder.
Get a hard drive based camcorder if you want. Some of the higher-end flash memory camcorders are good. Best quality video continues to come from miniDV tape based camcorder, so you can get one of those.
DO NOT GET A DVD based camcorder. Poor video quality, difficulties transferring to computer for editing, unstable optical discs... Do yourself and your husband a HUGE favor and please don't do it.
If you tell us your budgets, we can make actual recommendations. Canon, Sony and Panasonic are the usual manufacturer suspects.
Digital formats are best for editing: MiniDV tape, hard drive, flash memory (also known as "tapeless").
The analog formats are just going away slowly. This included Hi8, VHS-c.
My recommendation: Canon ZR800 or Sony DCR-HC28 (or HC96). You may need to add a firewire port to your computer. Easy to do if there is an available PCI slot inside - or PCMCIA slot if a laptop. Don't spend all your money on the camcorder - you will also want a tripod and an extra high capacity rechargeable battery... and a sturdy case.

A. Help me understand... You have a $128 pocket "toy" Insignia camcorder and you don't like the video quality.
You want the quality of a Sony HDR-XR500V, $1,000 camcorder but don't want to spend any money?
This is only on part of the puzzle.
We don't know what you edited your pocket cam video with and on. We don't know what you consider poor video. We don't know what the lighting conditions were that you captured with and we don't know what you did with the video (compression wise) before you uploaded...
Then, with the Sony, that AVCHD/MTS high definition camcorder has very specific requirements for a computer and editing applications to edit with and on.
Provide more definition on what you have and how you got it - video wise... or expect the response to be that you need to spend at least what that Sony costs to get that quality of video... and add in all the computer hardware and software upgrades you will need too.
As lenses and imaging chips increase in size, the cost goes up.
