WhyitMatters

Zoom Very important so you can capture the action without being obtrusive. Optical

zoom is vastly desirable over digital zoom. The higher the optical zoom, the

better.

Storage Amount of internal and external memory. All camcorders come with internal

memory but not all have removable external memory cards. Having removable

storage is a very important feature, especially if two or more people will be

sharing the camcorder. I recommend that you purchase a camcorder that uses

removable SD cards if it will be shared; that way, each user can have her/his

own card. When the camera is transferred you can simply remove your card to

avoid loss of video files.

Storage capacity Storage capacity refers to how much video (measured in length of time) can be

stored in the camcorder before needing to transfer the video files to another

storage device. Camcorders that record in different file sizes will have variable

storage capacity depending on the size of video recorded. Storage capacity

varies according to color saturation and complexity of what you record.

File size of one

minute of video

This is the size of one minute of video. File size matters for storage. It also

might matter if you plan to email a file or upload it to a system that places size

limitations. You can use software to compress the file to a smaller size, but that

adds an additional step and also lessons the quality of the clip.

Take still photos Some camcorders have a dedicated still photo function while others don’t. If you

want to be able to take still photos, definitely choose a camcorder with a

dedicated still photo function. With some you can capture a frame of video as a

still.

Manual Lighting

settings

Also referred to as exposure controls. Some camcorders enable you to switch

the lighting settings so that you will get better results in different situations, e.g.

indoors, outdoors, etc. other camcorders just use one automatic setting that

adjusts (theoretically) to various lighting conditions.

Display monitor size This is the size of the LCD viewer

Does display monitor

rotate

This indicates whether or not the display can be rotated so that the person

being filmed can see themselves. This is a very important feature if you will be

included in the action. By using this feature you can easily see if you are

capturing what you want to capture. Without it, it’s hit or miss.

Come with editing

software?

Find out if the camcorder comes with its own editing software (this is not

essential because there are plenty of free and low-cost software applications

available). Almost all camcorders can download files to both Macs and PCs, but

not all of the editing software that comes bundled with the camcorders works on

both platforms.

Minimum illumination

for video clip

This tells you how well the camcorder will capture good video in dark settings.

The lower the better.

Accessories

included

This lists what come in the box. In addition, the camcorders come with some

level of getting started guide and some come with detailed manuals. In addition

to what comes in the box you can buy optional accessories.

Price Expect to pay between $80 - $200, plus shipping, tax, and optional accessories.
