Very good quality MiniDV camcorder, which features DV in and DV out - essential if you want to edit on your PC and then get your edited footage back onto tape.
|
 | ADS Pyro PlatinumDV (PCI)
You can pick up firewire cards for around £20, so why pay so much for this one? Because it comes with a full version of Adobe premiere 6, including manuals. This is a semi-professional editing package
|
 | Nisis 3 port PCI Firewire Card
Buy new: £6.77 A cheaper alternative, but you will need to get some decent software - see below
|
 | VideoStudio 7.0
Buy used from: £15.99 Not sophisticated, but a very affordable and user friendly video editing package.
|
 | Belkin Firewire Cable 6pin-4pin (1.8m)
Buy new: £3.99 Your camcorder is unlikely to be supplied with a firewire cable. You will need one to hook up to your PC.
|
 | Sony 3 Pack 60 Min Mini DV "Colour" On Brick
Buy new: £2.75 No tape is supplied with camcorders these days, so again you will need some. I have found these Sony ones to be decent quality
|
 | Samsung 80Gb 7200rpm
You will need plenty of disk space on your PC. 1 hour of raw footage takes up about 11-12Gb of space.
|
 | BenQ 48x16x48 CDRW Drive
CD-RW drives are very handy for burning short movies onto in MPEG1(VCD). Great for sharing.
|
 | Philips DVD+R/RW Drive DVDRW228K
If you want to be flash - get a DVD-R for burning movies onto. Not all DVD players will play back these discs though.
|
 | Canon DM-XL1s Professional Mini DV Camcorder
Buy used from: £1,100.00 I want one of these, so if you enjoyed reading this list, feel free to buy me one;-)
