Q. I want to get an HD camcorder for under $600 or a consumer non HD camcorder for under $400, I want to get a camcorder that has awesome clarity to shoot sponsor videos, and is a Flash Memory or MiniDV better for snowboarding and to make DVDs. Thanks

Answer
after working in the film industry for almost 3 years and shooting snowboard/ski videos for local mountains like echo mountain, and copper mountain, here is what i have to say.

HD is not a easy rout to go. HD is a very unforgiving environment. First off, you need an HD camcorder. Those run about 1000 dollars averagely. You would also need a video editing program that supports editing in HD. Sony vegas is a common program but that runs you 500 bucks. You also need a ton of ram and a good graphics card that can process the HD video while editing. In the end you need an HD dvd burner that can burn your HD footage. If you fall short of one of these things the video in the end will not come out in true HD but will be brought down to normal SD quality. If you have the money and tools to shoot, edit, and play in HD then go for it!

I would go for miniDV any day. flash memory can only store a little data and the quality is not as supurb as mini dv

In my opinion i shot my first snowboard video on a panasonic pvgs 320. Its a great camcorder that has 3ccd's and has the best picture for a camera under 400 dollars. I currently own it and love it. If you don't want that camcorder then get something that is 3ccd. It will be making the people that watch it go WOW! 3ccd gives you supurb color and I highly reccomend it.

check out my youtube listed below. I have my first snowboard video on there and the quality may seem bitter (because its on youtube) but trust me the quality is the best for the price you pay.

also please check out my tutorial on my youtube below that shows you how to build a steadicam. that will let you ride behing your buddies and get spectacular footage thats SUPER STABLE. also invest in a wide angle for close up shots near the jumps and rails.

I am looking to buy a new camcorder for making movies. What are some of the better cameras that I could buy? Any price under $600 is fine, but it needs to be able to record in 1080p, thanks!

Answer
Right now I'm looking at the Panasonic HDC-HS900K camcorder:

It's not under your $600 budget with a price of $1399, but it's got some pretty good features about it. Like 1080/60p frames per second (first consumer camera I've seen do this) at 28mbps (also highest I've seen in a consumer camera). It's also capable of capturing 3D video (though you need an extra lens for that). One last thing I like about it is it has a built-in 220gb hard drive and it supports SD cards (SD, SDHC and SDXC).

What is the best type of camera for filming videos primarily, and also takes great pics?

I'm looking at under $600. I heard DSLR's are fun, better for hands on focus, and have great shots. But their video has sound issues. Camcorders (Sony Handy Cams) on the other hand seem to be refined to pointing and shooting.

Answer
Many still cameras have video functions, and especially the DSLRs with video produce decent enough results. However, if video is important to you, you are MUCH better off with a camcorder.
At this point in time, they still do a much better job (and are much more user-friendly) at video and audio recording than still cameras can.
