Recommend a Video Camcorder Anyone

[alan-d]

The School is looking for a new Video Camcorder.

 

Must record to HDD - can't be doing with tapes and disks

Preferably a standard usb connection.

 

Budget is £400 maximum

 

I've looked at the Sony DCRSR52E (approx £348), but do any of you budding camramen/women have any other recommendations?

That was handy The company I ordered from lost the order then said they can't invoice us and want payment up front.

 

Thanks Galway - I didn't realise CCL did cameras.

CCL do everything, for education they will source anything and everything for you, you just need to ask.

Might be worth paying a little extra and getting one with AV inputs too so you can use an external cam or mic with it. Can be useful in some applications. A feature not many cheaper decent make cams have. Strangely enough though those cheap 99 quid jobbies from ebay (Taiwan, Hong Kong or wherever) do have AV inputs! I wan't one for use with a bullet cam on a motorbike! Vroom Vroom!
