Can anyone recommend a camcorder with these specs?

Barbara Du

I am looking for a decent camcorder and I am having a hard time finding one. I am looking for one that I can take decent pictures [anything above 5 megapixels] and something that is decent with minor concerts.

Camcorder specs I am hoping for:
At least 4GB flash memory [or something that is expandable]
Something that can record at least 2 hours of video [either on medium or high setting]
Concert friendly audio [Something with decent audio quality]
10 or more megapixel still image
Light on camcorder if possible [It is not a must but would be nice]
Digital zoom [doesn't matter how much]
10x or more optical zoom [This is a must]
Something of good video quality [doesn't have to be HD but I would like a camcorder that isn't blurry.]

More info if you want to read:
I am not asking people to search all over the place for a camcorder that I want but if you know of one or has one with specs like these please let me know what it is. I don't need anything too fancy I just want one where I can record my favorite singer [he's not a famous singer so his concerts aren't too packed and they are usually outside in the daytime] and I would also like it too take decent still images. I know that is hard with a camcorder but if it doesn't have over 10 megapixels I can't get it. Also post something with any price, if I like it and can find it for around my price range I will get it. Thank you.
By concert I mean me right in front of the stage with 50 people or less at the concert. These are minor concerts where there isn't even a band, just the singer singing to prerecorded instruments. So by good audio I mean something that doesn't get all fuzzy when I'm in front of the stage recording.

Should check out this blog, it listed the top rated camcorders that have features that you want: http://lovetosharethis.blogspot.com/2011/06/top-best-hd-and-digital-camcorders-can.html

Good helmet cams (can you put them somewhere besides a helmet?)?

I'm looking into getting a helmet cam for a parkour friend of mine for Christmas. I'm on a tight budget and anything under a hundred dollars would be nice. Except he doesn't run around with a helmet on top of his head, and it seems like a bulky thing (yeah, I know, safety is a top priority bla bla bla). So where else could a good helmet camera go?

It doesn't have to be amazing quality, I'd just like something that won't break, that's easy to use, and not too blurry. Noise and other things don't really matter. Thanks!

Your in luck,
there a camcorder a recently found. It's very small (2inches tall to be exact).
It also designed to be a helmet cam, it has a strap on the back to attach it to any Velcro strap ect.

The best part is that the cost of owning one is only $12 (USA only)
