best video camera for night recording image
jdl12321
i know that the $300 is not a lot for an hd video camera and that it won't be the greatest video quality ever, but i'm just a college kid so my funds are limited to say the least. i record tennis matches with my brother, and we usually play at night, as well as basketball games (during the day). any thoughts?

no consumer HD camera can record sports action except as a blur. that is because of the super high compression. MPEG4, AVCHD and similar codecs record only one actual frame and then throw out the next 7, giving it a GOF factor of 8. on playback the missing frames have to be guessed at by interpolation, which gives blurry jumpy results.
the solution is to use the system most widely used by action sports videographers, which is miniDV. while not HD it can be shot in the widescreen mode so the picture will fill an HDTV screen. And you can get one for under $300, look at the Canon ZR960.

What is a dishwasher worthy video camera model?

I want a video camera that has a good balance of price and quality. In the end, its going in a dishwasher. :P I dont need fancy stuff like waterproofing or night-vision, I already have a plan for that. It has to be under $30 and quality like that of the average cell phone or better. What model would best suit this project?
Answer
You will have to be a little clever, and will need a 2nd camera or other recording devise. But when you need to destroy a camera, these are the way to go. You can simply put it in a plastic bag and run wires out for power and recording video.
