Try to find a Canon HV40, when you can get one for less than $700 it is a GREAT camera that should get you started, especially with what you have otherwise to work with on the editing and production side.

Ignore Zoobie and maybe he will go away. Thought you’d left the colony Zoobie…what kind of answer is “yes?”

Sony or Canon are two brands that have new camcorder for the money. The Canon VIXIA HF R20 Full HD Camcorder with 8GB Internal Flash Memory and the Sony HDR-CX190 High Definition Handycam 5.3 MP Camcorder may be good options for you. Hope that could solve your problem.
