Hi guys,

Just wondered if anyone could give me some advice on a camcorder that I want to be able to get for use in a school. In general it wants to be used for taking several clips over a period of time and then connecting it to a computer and pulling them off to record to disks or for the websote etc.. I have been looking at these HD cameras below, it looks like a decent price for what it is but then im no expert. Do these cameras record directly into mpeg format as well?

I'm not an expert on camcorders but I think it will meet the your requirements. The specs on it say it records in mpeg2 format, i checked the manual and it appears quite easy to transfer to a pc to make dvd's, etc. See link below for manual:

Cool I will probably go with these then Thanks.

If anyone else wants to post an advise please do so.

Cheers
