Makes, models, pros and cons? Please help me decide!
I have a Canon which I am very happy with. I prefer tape - as far as I know no professional video work is done on DVD - if it is good enough for the pros - its good enough for me.
Watch button size - the home cameras are getting stupid with the size of buttons. Also watch menus - you want a camera that has the main functions - such as f-stop correction on the camera rather than buried in a software menu.
