    nakita ko sa website ng sony na meron sila video cam na less than 20K or something around that price range. ok kaya ito? affected ba ito nung problems ng sony cameras.

    gusto kasi namin bumili ng video cam for general use lang. no need for hi-tech features etc. pero syempre dapat yung ndi naman masisira agad.

    may ibang brands ba na competitive ang price with sony?

    any advise or comments appreciated!

    tnx!

    The last time na pumunta kami sa Metrowalk mga last week, they were having an appliance sale there, mostly Sony products (flat TVs, components, even Walkman mp3 players). I don't know if it's still there.

    I saw a MiniDV Sony Handycam, DCR-HC28, retailing for around 12k lang (mall price is 25k). Kaya lang medyo duda kami na smuggled yun kaya mura.

    yung iba video 8. for as low as 9K meron ka na.

    yung miniDv from 17K to 25K meron din.


    can't afford pa pag yung tipong DVD or HDD type na video cam.


    ndi naman siguro smuggled ito kasi sony phils mismo nag post sa online catalogue nila.

    buhayin ko lang itong thread na ito.

    ano palagay niyo mas ok na bilihin: for home use lang yung camcorder.

    1) sony DCR-HC38

    2) canon ZR 830

    3) panasonic PV-GS85

    All are priced the same at 23K (canon with ipod shuffle 1 GB for additional 2K)

    All miniDV

    All with USB terminal (can this be used to transfer video to PC by playing the miniDv and capturing the vid to the PC)

    Sony and canon with CCD lens

    ano ba dapat dun sa mga specs and features ang dapat icompare? can you suggest at most 5 features to easily compare camcorders.

    I suggest comparing them based on the following:

    1. Zoom capability
    2. Battery life
    3. Startup time
    4. General ease of use
    5. Price

    Don't rely on USB alone for transferring videos to your computer. Sooooooobraaaaaaaaaaaaaang baaaaaaaagaaaaaaaaaaaal. Get a camcorder which uses the IEEE 1394 protocol (FireWire/i.Link).

    those criteria /specs should be easy to compare.

    paano malalaman yung specs nung USB? yung IEEE---- na sinasabi mo? ndi kaya sa mga high end models ito?

    kung sobrang bagal yung standard USB ng camcorders, mas ok ba na yung walgn USB na lang ang kunin ko then bili ng card to transfer the video to the PC. what do you think?

Video camera less than 20K
