bigjsurdaddy Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 I have been in the market for a camcorder for a while now. I was wondering if anyone had a really nice that wasn't a touch screen (fat fingers) and shoot full HD with image stabalization in digial zoom. Or something close to that. I want to try and keep it uder 800. I don't know what steve uses most of the time but some of his vids look real nice on a computer screen but i wanted one that would look good on a 65 inch. Any help would be helpful. When i get one you'll see alot more of me pic and vid wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somerandomguy Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 I think sanyo camcorders are pretty good.. they even have some (or maybe only one) that can record in slow motion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slugdub Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Ugg, I don't know much about camcorders but I would bet my UE check that Best Buy is not the place to buy one. Too expensive. Go there and play with them and then hit up newegg because you save a ton and get good stuff with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somerandomguy Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 (edited) Here is the camera I was talking about http://us.sanyo.com/Digital-Camcorders/VPC-FH1BK-Full-1080p-HD-Video-and-8MP-Digital-Photos 60fps, 240 and 600 fps (true slow motion) if you're interested in that --- the slow motion doesn't seem to be that great, at least not imo.. it's a start, but needs a lot of work can only record 10 seconds worth, and the quality decreases too much. This was one of my main points at looking at this camera when it first came out, but I guess it wouldn't be that much use to me besides playing with it some lol *Full 1080p HD Video (60fps) *8-Megapixel Digital Photos *10x optical zoom (16x "advanced" [digital ?]) *HDMI Output I can no longer find the price for it, but it's around $500, or it was.. although it came out like a year ago and that was then so maybe.. and hopefully.. the price came down. EDIT: Looking at the online retailers (not on newegg as far as I can tell) it seems to be $400, but that is the other model of the same camera - if that makes sense - but I'm not sure what the difference is, just seems that one is compatible with mac - and one isn't? EDIT 2: The EXACT camera is $600 on amazon. There are loads of videos from it on youtube.. (you'll find more if you just search "sanyo FH1") look at the one of the moon Look at how good it does in the dark and look at how it shows the flash ---- make sure to double click this video and watch it on youtube in 1080p The only problem that I have found with it, from reviews, is that it loses about 10 seconds of video every 22 minutes - when it makes a new file. I can live with that though Overall, it seems like a really good camera to me. The zoom isn't all that great, I really wish it was more like 20x optical. Canon's camcorders around this price have 20x, but looking at video quality vs. this, this looks 10x better.

kl0wn Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Panasonic SDR-S10 That's the recorder I have. Takes video pretty damn well, but the pictures aren't so good, so I use my LG Dare for pictures.

Its a no name brand but this little thing is awesome. It uses SD cards to record (up to 4Gb) It roughly comes out to 5hrs of video on one card. Its a AGFA Photo DV-5000HD (1280 x 720) I was looking at a Kodiak (720 x 480)for $400 then I saw this little Gem.
