So recently, I had been doing a project with my friend’s two digital camcorders that are Canon brand. They are MiniDV camcorders (one cost $1200 and the other $2500). I am not sure exactly what the model number is. At the same time, I was playing around with my Canon Powershot A710IS’s video capture function. After I transfered the footage captured on the two MiniDVs, I compared the quality to that of the footage recorded on my Powershot and the Powershot’s footage actually seemed crisper, brighter, and cleaner. On the other hand, the MiniDVs seemed grainy and kind of dim. All of the footage was in AVI format. Is it possible that a digital camera’s video quality is actually better than MiniDV? (Given: my friend’s camcorders are a couple years old but they work perfectly fine.)

Sunday, February 28th, 2010What Does Mp Stand For When Dealing With Camcorders?
Saturday, February 27th, 2010I’m trying to buy a HD digital camcorder, but I’m not good at knowing what ones are good. I just want a Basic camcorder. Anyone know any good ones. Or can tell me some good features a descent camcorder should have.
And has anyone heard of the SVP™ HD T-400 camcorder? If so is it good? Cuz thats the one I was going to buy.
