I know nothing about cameras at all..to be honest. But I need something that can also record videos pretty well..
thank you.
Answer
There are lots of great cameras out there and they are becoming really cool I know that Canon has a few cameras that take great pictures but also record Full HD video which is really cool. I prefer Canon because of there prices and quality, similar companies are just as good but more expensive heres an example. The Canon T1i Shoots full HD video and has a 15 megapixels which is awesome their websites suggested retail price is 900$. Nikons comparable camera is the D90 which is only 12 megapixels and its video mode is HD but it shoots 720p which is not full HD like the Canon which Shoots 1080i, which is full HD and the Nikon is 1300$. So for a much better camera the Canon wins with more megapixles and Full HD video and A better price tag! Hope this helps here are the links for price and specs on both

Looking for a video camera that has flash, or a flash can be added?

I need a new video camera for my baby's 1st birthday. I need something that can take good videos when the lighting isn't that good. I want something that either has a flash built in or I can attach a flash to it. I need something not crazy expensive, but something good. Thanks!!
Answer
Don't use flash with a video camera, flash is for still photography. What you need is a video light. No need to think expensive here, a Clamp on, $12 light from your local Hardware Store, a bulb, another $10 or so, done.
HD camcorders interpolate the video, which means of every 25 frames of video, 4 or 5 frames are taken by the lens assembly; the other frames in between these are filled in by the camcorder inner circuitry, thus giving you not true video. It looks like this -one frame from the lens assembly, 7or 8 from the electronic circuitry, one frame from the lens assembly, 7or 8 from the electronic circuitry, one frame from the lens assembly, 7or 8 from the electronic circuitry, one frame from the lens assembly, 7or 8 from the electronic circuitry, from front to back of the video. Near impossible to edit, even when you have the Multi port processor computer with the big 1GB Graphics card and a Sound card that is required to edit, view, watch and work with the files these camcorders produce.
Consumer level HD camcorders have 4 problems. 1) Blurry, fuzzy, out of focus areas closely around people in videos taken by consumer level HD camcorders. 2) Any movement, even a wave or lifting an arm, while in front of a recording consumer level HD camcorder, results in screen ghosts and artifacts being left on the video track, following the movement. Makes for bad video, sports videos are unwatchable. 3) These Consumer level HD camcorders all have a habit of the transferred to computer files are something you need to convert, thus losing your HD quality, to work with your editing software. 4) Mandatory maximum record times - 1 hour, 30 minutes, 8 minutes, 3 minutes â four different times advertised as maximum record time for some consumer level HD camcorders. No event I have ever been to is that short. Either take multiple camcorders or pack up with out getting the end of the event on video.
MiniDV is currently the most popular format for consumer digital camcorders. MiniDV camcorders are typically more affordable than their HDD and DVD counterparts. Each MiniDV tape will typically hold an hour of footage at normal recording speed and quality. MiniDV tapes are available for purchase at not only electronic and camera stores, but also at drugs stores and grocery stores, making them easy to find while your on vacation. There are literally hundreds of MiniDV camcorders available; both in standard and high-definition. And add the fact that to get a HD camcorder that could produce better video quality footage, one would have to spend in excess of $3500 for that camcorder that could produce higher quality video.
