I am going on a vacation this coming September and I would like to have a camcorder to take with me. It'll be my second time out and the 1st time I didnt get a lot of memories to take home... I basically have no idea what to look for, but I'd like to keep it at or under $300, cheaper if possible, since there are other expenses I have to worry about. I know I could do some research on my own, and I will a little, but I'd also like to get some opinions and suggestions that might help me streamline my search. Best brand? Best deal? or Anything I should know going in? I was thinking of going to Frys... Thanks in advance.
I have a Sony Handycam DCR-SR45 30GB Camcorder. I got mine for cheap on the internet, $320. Really good camcorder
Walmart has a great deal on the ZR900: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/prod...uct_id=10059009&sourceid=09636457802667196006 The ZR series has been around awhile. I still own a ZR10 and it works great. I like shooting on dv tape because it's easier to save. If you'd rather shoot on an SD card Circuit City has this deal: http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/Sear...inkid=j13459594k39085&affiliateid=k39085&mid= I found both of these deals on the GottaDeal.com site.
