For the past couple of months I've been looking around for a camcorder. There's 2 that I'm debating on getting and would like any feedback for either one. I will mainly use this for casual/friend/family outings and to use for references for my animation/concepts.
Panasonic g585 (minidv ~$300)
Sony dcr-sr42 (HDD ~$550)
I know they're two different recording mediums but it seems that the HDD would be easier to transfer the files on my computer. There was a canon hv-10(?) but it was $300 over my budget.
Since these 2 camcorders don't really give a good still picture, I was thinking of upgrading my current camera (canon a60 3.1mp) to a higher resolution. But I don't know which brand to get now, let alone one that would give nice video playback.
I also noticed there's "hybrids" but I don't know if those are any good. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.
