What is the best HD digital camcorder?




Dawn


I would like one with at least 3 CCD's, awesome zoom, and the ability to buy accessories that will make it possible to make blue ray DVD's. I have my eye on one but it is not on sale in stores yet, and I need it by the middle of March.
I have checked out various camcorder review sites, but they are from last year, and several new camcorders have been released since then that are not on the reviews. I haven't found one that is not out dated.



Answer
since you don't mention a budget i could recommend the sony hvr v1p.

personally, i am smitten with my v1p. its around US$4000 or so but it's excellent and offers 25p. basically this means it'll do a good job in making it look like film. some seasoned camera ops say it's as good as super 16mm (in the right hands of course!)

i shot a feature with it and i was very pleased. the blow up was surprisingly good.

any budget hd/hdv cam will make bluray discs as they are suited to 1440 x 1080 (and native 1920) resolutions. but to really make a great looking film you can go past the v1. it uses cmos sensors instead of ccd which i think does a better job.

good luck!

Is the Canon XA10 a good camcorder for short films?

I need a camera that will provide a professional look to my films. I thought that it was a good buy for 2000 dollars so i want to know. will it give the same professional video from the 4000 or 7000 dollars cameras?


Answer
reviews are mostly positive.
