I'm on amazon.co.uk (i'm in Australia and our format is PAL... amazon.com has camcorders in NTSC format) looking for an older new or used 3ccd camcorder.
Something like the Canon XM2 or the Sony VX2100...
And to get off topic... heard another "quote of the day"
"He's the type of guy who would use cloning so he could have gay sex with himself!"

More On High Definition Camcorders...
I went into my local hi-fi store as they are noted for good deals on electronics, but not a specialist for video cameras so I still do my own research.
I have been thinking about hard disk drive camcorders as my old mini-dv tapes (which were supposed to last forever) seem to jump an skip all over the place.
At least going straight to digital file I can possibly avoid that problem.
The camcorder that caught my eye was the Sony HDR SR11.
60GB of storage space and High Definition recording...
but... still researching

HD Video
I haven't been doing much filming lately, one excuse was that my digital camcorder wasn't good enough.
Most of my stuff ends up in flash format on youtube or the like so just as long as the lighting and audio is good I can make do with my trusty Sony trv-19.
But... if I was to get a new camcorder i've been investigating the new digh definition formats, hard disk drive and dvd camcorders.
What is putting me off HDD and dvd camcorders is that they compress the video (granted it's minimal) but I still like mini-dv and the opportunity to have the best avi files possible on my pc so I can then output it as I want.
Also the new camcorders are very small. I like the feel of a larger camcorder and they are more stable when shooting 'freehand'.
So I am also looking at older 3ccd models.
Will let you know what I come up with. Feel like eating a mandarin now for some reason...

appreciate life and to live it the best way i possibly can."
