Attn: Aaron and other camera-types[views:2240][posts:12]_________________________________________ [Nov 27,2010 12:01pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] Sooo... I'm in the market for a digital video camera, preferably a semi-pro-type one. Looking for something with digital image stabilization and a decent mic (or attachment for one - don't know to what extent they are interchangeable). Need to keep it under a grand. Anybody got a line on any holiday-type deals? (Or something reliable they wanna get rid of?) |

Go to youtub and search for my youtube stream. http://www.youtube.com/revaaron probably. Those are recorded with the built in attinuating microphone, but it has a stereo mic port. I just need a hot shoe adapter for it. My mom got the same camera to video her husbands racecars. I think the hf300 I out now. The hfs30 or hfs20 are the "higher end" models I think. |

| _____________________________________ [Dec 3,2010 8:40am - the_reverend ""] the GL1 and GL2 seem like a waste of money. They used miniDV which means you need firewire and software to deal with. |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 3,2010 8:53am - DestroyYouAlot ""] Yeah, I've made that discovery myself - leaning towards a hf s10 or s20. |

| _____________________________________ [Dec 3,2010 9:19am - the_reverend ""] don't get the HFS20, get the HFS200 over the HFS20. I did my research on this... HF S20 and HF S200 are the same exact camera. the only difference is 32GB of in camera store which is useless. Just get SD cards. 2 reasons, 1) for the $100 premium, you can get 4-5 16GB SDHC cards or 2 32GB SDHC cards. 2) you have to connect the camera to the computer to transfer off the memory 3) the HF S200 model has 2 memory slots. |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 3,2010 10:09am - the_reverend ""] Don't get it on ebay. Get it from a reputable store on Amazon with a 1 year warranty. the HF S200 is cheaper, I just said that. |
