I have a kodak easyshare, v1253, 12 mega pixel, HD, didgital camera. I wanted to be able to record video at madonnas concert with clear sound. with my old camera, the sound from the gwen stefani concert came out terrible. you couldnt even tell what she was saying. please dont reccomend me another camera. just tell me whether this specific camera can take clear sound. (i want to know, so i know whether to take videos, or save the room for more pictures).
heres the site:

Answer
Even if you buy a handycam there won't be a clear sound recorded on the handycam.Your camera is a digital camera and this is a universal fact that the mic in digital cameras always record a low quality audio as they can't sacrifice the video quality.So if you are in a mood to take silent videos then go for your camera but not for environments like concerts, live shows , movies and even your home videos.I would say that your camera having capabilities of capturing HD images , you should "save the room for more pictures".

HI,
im looking for some advise on cameras to use in low light places light concerts.

Good "low light" video recording quality = LARGE lenses and large imaging chips. Anything less than about $2,500 won't have these. As well, LOUD audio at the concerts = manual audio gain control is needed.
Assuming we start with the manual audio control and medium lenses and single imaging chip, take a look at the Canon HF S20 and HF S200. The Sony HDR-CX550 is worth a look, too. All of these have a 58mm lens filter diameter and single CMOS OK-sized imaging chip. I use a Sony HDR-FX1 (which was replaced by the HDR-FX1000). It does great in low light - but it has a 72mm lens filter diameter and 1/3" 3CCD imaging chip system.
Below the HF S200 and CX550 you will find most of the camcorders use a 37mm lenses filter diameter - or smaller (30.5mm) and have smaller single imaging chips... and most do not have manual audio gain control...
"Affordable" means different things to different people for different reasons. Since camcorders can range from $50 to $50,000, a $1,000 camcorder is not exactly unreasonable and is actually in the high end of the consumer camcorder price range...
