If you had to buy one Camcorder...

My suggestion for everyone who wants a digital camcorder for the price around $500, is the [bold]Canon Elura 90 or Panasonic PV GS 150[/bold]. these both cameras are outstanding for the value of $500.
I personally own the Elura 90 because i am happy with my other canon products. These both can be found on Buydig.com

 

Tell me... do they have analog input? are they miniDV and perform reasonably well in low-light situations?

 

I would also like some reccomendations. I want to spend about $500, as well, but I can go higher, because I do plan on doing a lot of stuff with my camera.

It has to be miniDV,
good in low-light situations,
good picture quality,
external microphone capabilities,
analog in would be nice, too.

Special effects (fade and that sort of thing) are not needed, and still image capabilities are also uneccesary. Anything fit that description?

 

The Canon doesn't have the analog input but I am not sure about the panasonic. The canon Elura 90 is:

[bold]CANON ELURA 90[/bold]

Mini DV
1.33 Mega pixel digital camera
Good In low light ( I will give it a 3.5/5 )
Easy to Use
Comes with a wide converter, which performs great
Video Quality is Good in good amout of light

Price = $500.00


[bold]Panasonic[/bold]

Mini DV
3CCD Camera latest tech

Both of these camera are good in my opinion, They both Cost around $500.00, they are both good in outdoor. Indoor is just ( O K ) I personally like Canon Better. Both of these Cameras can be seen at Buydig.com
