Which digital camera is best for recording video? |
I'm ready to buy a digital camera but I would like to get an opinion from the masses. Heres the scenario...I ride a sport bike and I plan on mounting a digital/video camera to my bike while I ride. The video length needs to be longer than just 30 seconds. I also want good quality picture capabilities as well. I'm hoping to spend no more than $275. Any suggestions? If you buy a digital camera that also shoots 'video'...then make sure it has a resolution of at least 640X480 at 30fps...and also records audio. Canon is a very good brand that takes high quality 'video'. The newer ones can record 1GB at a time (about 8 minutes)...and others have no limitations except for the memory card you are using (up to 4 GB). Obviously digicams can not compete with dedicated video cameras (handycams) for video quality...so keep that in mind. Frankly, I do not know how a digicam will handle the 'rough treatment' while connected to a sport bike, but good luck anyway. Any thing Sony Well, for still cameras, I recommend Nikon. But for videos, go with Sony. I would definitely look at the Fuji line of digital cameras. Not only do they record video, they also record sound. And it is not limited to only 30 seconds. Its limit depends on how much memory you have on the flash memory ( xd card ). Or if you are a serious sport biker where you will encounter a lot of bumps and jumps opt for a detachable lens video camera. This will eliminate of harming the recording mechanism. Just strap the lens with the Velcro and secure the recorder in a padded bag. you could even strap the camera to your helmet and keep the recording unit attached to your body ( looks better while your body cushions the bumpy ride ). http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controll... http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controll... |
