I like my Carl Zeiss lens on my DSC-F505V and DCR-PC9 ^_^

I have a DCR-PC1 and it's very nice and easy to use. Not anything flashy or advanced but gets the job done without hassle, and can be carried around easily. Costed quite a bit when I bought it... I suspect the newer models of the DCR-PC camcorders would be pretty good.

Panasonic. PV-DV953. $1500. 3 ccds, 10x optical zoom, _optical_ image stabilizer, also functions as a 3-megapixel digital camera. Sony = owned.

I just got a sony TRV22, and it is excellent. $700 or less. Add on some lenses, an extra battery, carrying case, etc.

Check out camcorderinfo.com.

Probably in the line of Sony DCR-PC101 or better.

Damn, I just noticed that too.

I think he edited his post. I swear it said "digital cam", not "camcorder" before.....

:Q

Edit: It wasn't me! I didn't do it! It was NutBucket!

I know I'm not blind!! It didn't say camcorder yesterday!!!!

What he said! Incredible camcorder for the money. Really untouchible in that price range. Even the DV70 is nice for under 1000.
