Cheap Camera for recording video games?




Undertaker


Now i've been googling the same thing but everyone says to use a capture card. The thing is, i want to record gameplay AND commentary that is live. Darksydephil whom does this uses a camera that costs $350 and i can not afford to spend even near that.
If possible i would like a camera that can charge (use power from an outlet) and record at the same time so i don't have to re-charge the battery.
Yes, i understand that i would need to point a camera straight towards my tv on a tri-pod that is what i plan on doing, I just need to find a cheap camera that can do the job with semi decent quality videos and semi decent mic.



Answer
Cameras don't record video from a television or game screen, for that you'd need a link to a video recorder like the cable companies use.

With a camera you'd need a tripod and have to point the camera at the screen and roll video... that's the only way a camera will do it.

What digital cameras record videos in AVI?

I was thinking about Kodak or Panasonic (or any others you know of) but they have to record videos in AVI so I can use them on windows movie maker. I know they can be converted but its bad quality...

Thanks!



Answer
Most cameras record in AVI, Canon does for sure. I thought that they all did. If you're looking for a camera that does, the Canon cameras definitely do though, that's not a worry. A good camera for all sorts of photography is the Canon SD1100
