I want to buy a Hd camcorder but my computer cant play things in HD…can i still upload the videos iam going to record and play it in standard definition

Im looking for a really good camcorder, who people have use in small professional businesses. I am starting a short movie, and I want to make it as professional as it can be. I have rarely any experience through filming, but I do know the basics. Also, Im looking for a camcorder, that is lower than $400, and able to carry around with him. Oh what are those mics above called? Thanks

I am looking for a HD Video Camcorder from a price range of 3500-4500. Name brand is not an issue. Looking to do small movies. Can anyone recommend one that is professional and really good?

I bought a professional camera: Panasonic ag-dvx100B and when i turn it on vcr mode with a firewire cable (4-pin to 6-pin) iMovie doesnt recognise it. Im looking for a specific software that enables video capturing.
Thanks for the Help!

I’m looking for a relatively good and professional camcorder that is with in around the $1500 price range. It needs to have an audio in and, like I said good professional quality. I’ve been looking at the Sony HVR-HD1000U but people have been saying that’s it’s not that much better than a consumer camcorder; it’s just in a professional body. It does however have some good features (like the manual adjustment ring) and I don’t really need anything really pro. I am an amateur film maker looking for a nice camera that shoots good quality footage. Is the Sony HVR a good camera for me?

I am a university student interested in making a short documentary film based on a research project. I will be doing close up shooting, a mix of indoor/outdoor, and some interviews.
I am completely new to the field, and I am wondering what kind of camcorder I could get for under 1000 dollars? Should I opt for a higher end non-professional camcorder or get a low-end professional camcorder? I would love to get something easily portable since I will be going abroad in about 6 months, but at the same time I don’t want to sacrifice quality. Would it be better to buy new or get something used off of ebay?
Thanks, I would love any suggestions or ideas!

I’m currently on the look out for a Professional camcorder (Not Hand-held!).. It needs to record high quality footage and such..
Can anyone recommend a website or a specific camera for me that is of a good price?
Thankyou.

It’s a sony HDD video camera.What professional services are available in Canada? How much do they charge if I do not need my videos urgently?Do they charge the same amount of money if they are not able to recover anything?
Thanks a lot

My friend and I both have Mini DV Camcorders (Mine’s a Panasonic, and his is a JVC). Around the same time we both seemed to come across the same problem with our cameras. At first it was just horizontal blue bars going across the screen, but eventually the picture and audio went out altogether. We bough a Dynex MiniDV Head Cleaner, which restored the picture on the Panasonic, but not the audio. But on the JVC the head cleaner won’t even stay inside the cassette tray, it keeps ejecting. Is there something wrong with our cameras? Or are they just in need of a professional cleaning? Has anyone else experienced this problem, and know a way to fix it?

I am looking to upgrade my current camcorder. I am looking at spending around $600 and am open to all formats. I currently have a Canon Mini Dv and love it but it is 5 years old and a few issues have arisen forcing me to look at a new one.
I am using it for home movies only, not professional.
