yeah linux is a camera lawl
But man, you should buy the HV20! It's awesome, especially when you figure out the secret to rendering llolol. The sony hdr-hc7 is really good too, but doesn't match the hv20.
i like cam threads :smile: can we get pics?

haha canon of course.
i'm probably buying some cheap ass camera. i only need it to record stuff, i don't need anything exceptional camer wise.
definately canon, ive got a sony at the moment and its really good quality but it uses MPEG-2 format and only 3 programs take it, which of those i dont have so im stuck using a shitty converter

So true! I mean I can get it so that I have a high quality link which makes it awesome but if you dont click it then the quality is shocking. Also to get this it always comes out as a huge file and it took me 7 hours to upload my last sampler:ogre:
aw you got the xl-h1? AND you figured out rendering, haha that's unfair :( <3
I wish I had both of them things man:sad:

I don't like this camera i think it is very week and flimsy.
Sony Z1 is the best in my opinion. It's £3000 very strong structure and everything is manual and personaly i think it is a lot better than this one.

If you want a good cheap camera then the Panasonic 100 is a really fucking good camera!

panasonic 100 sounds old
It is a bit old but it is one hell of a good camera! I use them for college when we make films. They produce some top quality footage and it has a lot of manual features on it.

People I havent really got that camcorder hahaha!! It was for jokes!
I do have a cannon though but its about 3 years old now and falling apart (mainly becasue i've abused it throughout its liftime) But it can still produce some good footage:smile:
