Which camcorder format?
I'm confused by all the camcorder formats available at the moment. Should I choose a hard disk-based camcorder, a DVD camcorder or a MiniDV model? I'm going nuts here! Read more

Panasonic SDR-H250 review
Panasonic brings a 3CCD hard drive camcorder to the table with the SDR-H250. It helpfully provides an option to record to a memory card and it offers many useful scene modes, but it will struggle to keep up with hi-def models Read more

Sony Handycam DCR-DVD205 review
If you're shopping around for a low-end DVD camcorder without too many superficial features, the DCR-DVD205 could be the solution. While it's lacking in some basic connections, such as USB, and its image quality is no more than mediocre, it does offer widescreen video and reasonably fast autofocus Read more

Panasonic VDR-D310 review
The Panasonic VDR-D310 is the most high-end Panasonic DVD camcorder you can get. With a 10x Leica lens giving it a significant edge, it clearly appears to be designed for users who want high-quality video without investing the significant money required for hi-def Read more

Canon MV930 review
As a general-use holiday camcorder, it's hard to level any real criticism at the Canon MV930. Years of experience and the decreasing costs of components have enabled Canon to deliver a very well-made camcorder for just over £200. If you can resist the magpie allure of the new DVD and hard-disk models, the MV930 is a bargain Read more

DVD camcorders
VHS is dead, long live the DVD. If you loved the convenience of your old VHS camcorder, then you'll find these new DVD-based ones equally appealing. All these camcorders record straight to a half-sized DVD, burning footage in real-time. Once you're done recording, pop the disc out and place in it your home DVD player and you can watch the footage back in glorious colour Read more

Panasonic VDR-D300 review
DVD camcorders have typically sacrificed quality for convenience compared to MiniDV models in the same price range. The Panasonic VDR-D300 breaks that mould by offering video quality that's noticeably better than that of many competing DVD camcorders, as well as three CCDs for excellent colour, even in low-light situations Read more

JVC Everio GZ-MG77EK review
The JVC Everio GZ-MG77EK records its video on an internal 30GB hard disk, which allows you to save as much as 7 hours of video at the highest quality or a staggering 37 hours of footage at the lowest-quality. It's extremely lightweight and compact, but the video quality simply doesn't stack up against that of most MiniDV or DVD camcorders Read more
