    Camcorders?

    I've got 450max to spend on a miniDV camcorder. So whats the best on the street for that sort of money?

    Not fussed on brand, but from the little I know, it needs:
    DV Output AND Input
    High(ish) megapixel count
    etc

    So ideas from those in the know?

    Whats the URL for Digital Darkroom forums as well? I guess thats also a place to ask?

    Here's a couple of good specced ones for under £450.

    They both have a lot of features and the Panasonic is very reasonably priced. Both have SD/MMC Memory card slots which is great for transfering pics and clips over.
