Can anyone give me some advice regarding this camera. I have never
owned a video camera and I will be getting one soon. I only need it
for family videos, as I will be getting married soon, and vactions. I
also have a separate digital still camera, so this is only for video.
I read alot about the CCDs and mpeg quality and all sort of stuff that
I dont fully understand. This camera seems like it should be pretty
easy for me to store all of my film on my computer, I have a huge HD,
and I wont have to purchase or carry around several tapes or dvds. I
will want to be able to edit the footage together, but again this wont
be anything fancy. The camera is very lightweight and compact but it
doesnt have an eyepiece, or a place to attach an additional light to
it. I dont know if the eyepiece is important or not, but I am
concerned about low light filming. Although I am under the impression
that every camera will have some issues with that. I have also heard
rumors about a very long, 14 second, boot time and the possiblity of
the camera getting very hot. Does anyone know if any of this is true?
I am looking to spend around $1,000 for a new camera, and if this is a
bad choice can anyone offer any good ideas and please tell me why.
Thanks in advance, I really appreciate the help.
