I need a digital video camera that I can just record with and upload via usb cable to my pc to video edit it. Something that I could make a small indie film with. Any Ideas?
Answer
i suggest a checklist of features -
budget dictates that you won't get HD for that price.
get something that has 3ccd.
for the price you should be able to have something in widescreen (16:9)
also, separate audio inputs would be necessary for decent recording. 3.5mm stereo jack good, xlr dual mic better.
mini dv format. you may be tempted to get HDD, flash or DVD but dv is still better (by far). why?
better archiving, cheap alternative, much better resolution compared to all other formats.
the others are ok if you HAVE to but steer clear of dvd. it ain't worth it.
thats the list. find the one that fits all of that for as close to $500.
also, invest in firewire card for your PC. usb 2.0 is not good enough for larger takes. firewire will do a whole 90 mins in real time with no dropouts (as long as you follow the recording rules).
hope it helps. i can't strictly recomend specific cameras cos everyone has their preference. you should got onto a couple of forums and stores to check em out.
good luck! hope it helps!

How do you capture video of television or internet activity without pointing a camera at the screen?

I want to start vlogging (video blogging) advice on a website I'm active on, but I don't know a lot about technology. On Youtube, I often see that people have clear, crisp video of their internet or T.V./gaming activity. How do they do that? The only thing I know how to do is point to camera at the screen and that just looks awful. All I have is a digital camera and Windows.
