    Hey.

    Ok, about a week ago I had been asking around these boards looking for opinions on good MiniDV cameras and have come down to two choices i can afford:
    Canon
    and
    Samsung

    Now, the Canon is $50 more but has a little more features. Since the Samsung is a little cheaper it gives me the opprotunity[sp?] to purchase some accesseries because I can only spend $300 at this point. What are your guys' opinions? Thanks in advance.

    Well, you did not have to make another post about this. You could simply put it in your last post...No need for another topic...

    Anyway, go with the Canon...the ZR series is a pretty good investement...If all you plan on doing know is lightsaber duels you don't need any accesories right now, besides a tripod and they can run pretty cheap...

    Yeah, I agree, get the Canon ZR500. I haven't heard anything good about
    the Samsung camcorders, so I'd definitely go with the Canon.

    Oh, and it is spelled opportunity.
    :D

    Yeah I would go with the cannon, unless you wanted to save up a bit more and get one of the panasonics that have 3ccd,(i think there around $499) it makes a huge difference,in my opinion.

    Hey I was looking around at Circuit City and found a JVC.
    JVC

    What do you guys think about this brand?

    It looks about the same as the other two.It pretty much depends on what brand you prefer.
