Pyroman Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 does it have to use SD cards? the canon MD101's or MD205's are good quality for about ~£120
dhicks Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Any advice/experiance? Sanyo Xacti - one of the range is waterproof, which always helps if it's got to stand up to being used by small, grubby children. -- David Hicks
Guest theeldergeek Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Hi i am looking for a good camcorder that uses SD cards ... Why SD cards? Currently, I suggest DVD based cameras. The advantages are that the DVD can be immediately be viewed back on any DVD player (once the disk is finalised); the DVD can easily be duplicated; the DVD can be sent away to Examination Boards etc as evidence; the footage can still be captured to a computer for editing. Given that the current primary media for viewing video is DVD, that to me seems the logical way to go. A decent Sony camera is circa £200

elsiegee40 Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 We have these in our Pre-School and REception classes. They're basic, but pretty robust. They get used a lot here. TTS - Tuff-Cam
