What's the best camcorder for me!?




Jonathan


I'm getting ready to buy my first video camcorder and wanted to get some advice. I'm looking for something to post good, high quality videos on Youtube. I want it to have at least 1080p HD quality, at least 11 mp, and I want it to be HDMI compatible. (Note: I'm just listing stuff I saw other expensive camcorders had, IDK if these specs are actually good). It will also be used to record group discussions, sporting events, and church services. Finally, I want something which has good video quality at night, maybe something with a light on it. It would be great if it was water proof, but that wouldn't be necessary. Any suggestions???


Answer
Camcorders do NOT need high pixel count sensors

* HD video = 1280 x 720 uses 0.9 megapixels
* Full HD video = 1920 x 1080 uses about 2.2 megapixels
* Even the new 4K video camera only use 8.3 megapixels (3840 Ã 2160)

What is your budget?

The best video cameras use three sensors.

Here is a link to one such camera.

Best HD camcorder for the best price?

What is the best HD camcorder for the lowest price?

Links are appreciated.



Answer
Your question is subjective as what is best at the lowest price will mean differently to everyone. There are too many variables as to what makes a camcorder best, like for what use? Low light, the most features and/or manual controls? What format it records as, etc.? Low price will be determined by the lack of features, reliability, serviceability, available accessories, demand, etc. And being that you did not state your budget, nobody will know if you can purchase only a HD pocket camcorder, one of the HD-SLR cameras, or one of the ultra HD 4k cameras, like the RED ONE.
