Re: Considering Buying A Video Camera
Fritz, actually manufacturers are making better AVCHD camcorders that record to SD or CF cards. If the MBPS is high enough then the more efficicient encoding of MPEG4 in these cameras vs. the MPEG2 coding for HDV makes up the difference in quality.
Ron are you wanting to go standard definition or high definition? Once you see High Def you won't want to go back but that will only benefit you if you have a high def Tv...er....monitor.
I have about a two year old Canon HV30 HDV camera that records high def to DV tape in the MPEG2 format and then two Sony V1U professional cameras of the same format for Wedding & Event videography. I bought the V1's just over a year ago and if I were going to buy today I would probably buy the new Pansonic HMC-150 that records MPEG4 to secure digital cards. That is the prosumer version of the AVCHD format but there are consumer versions just out that are also very good quality and incredibly convenient for editing since you just pop the SD card into your computer's card reader and transfer the files at a high speed rather than having to play a tape back at real speed to transfer to a computer editing system.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
