I want to buy Alan one of these dvd video cam recorders

Havn't got bucket loads of money

But like the look of

Panasonic VDR-D250

Sony DCRDVD 755

and the

Cannon DC22


Any referals or recommendations any one???????


edit to say: want one that records straight onto dvd to send home to the UK for playing (even though a pressie for Alan, it has to do what i want and need )

Not many replies mate...... Maybe you need to spice the thread up a little.



ZX.......

perhaps i should have titled it



Hot Sex Kitten requires Steamy and Intimate Sessions

We would probably need to see some photos first.......

ZX......

damn they're on the other computer LOL

I had some problems with a faulty panasonic camera, it stopped working after 3mths I returned it for warranty repair and got some a unnecessary hassle with it.


ZX......

That's okay mate we'll wait........


ZX......

you got a long one, your off on holiday remember LOL



Ok cross Panasonic off the list


actually i'm looking at the Cannon DC 22, i like the look of it, read the spec (not that it meant much to me)

compared it against the others on web sites and ..... want some personal experiences of them all!!!!????


surely someone out there knows something,


I know i'm, talking just under the 1000 buck mark but i bet loads of you have them (dont ya!!!)

I have a few Cannon cameras (SLR). I'm happy with them. But like you say someone out there must have one.......


ZX........

Sony would get my vote, i bought a Sony DCR-DVD403E and it's has been brilliant. Been using it for about a year and have yet to find anything wrong with it.

Have you looked at the new camcoders with hard drives built in, i would consider buying one of those if i was buying now. Sony DCR-SR range or JVC's Everio GZ-MG range gets good reviews.

Cheers

i looked at them, but knowing how quick alan operates, (bless him) thats why i'm looking at something i can (sorry he can) record straight onto disc and then i can pop it into the post for all my UK family (acutally all my family, as we have none over here)

Hard drive means he has to put it onto disc, (like wait forever la la la )

With the Sony you just touch a button on the screen when your finished using the disk and it sets the dvd disk up for using in a normal dvd player, then pop it in the post... sorted. Even i managed to figure it out in a couple of minutes

thanks Andydon

I shall have a look at that one, although i'm limited to cost now which is why i chose the ones above,

but i shall have a look and if i can get it cheaper in the UK, have a friend going over soon for a couple of weeks, i shall get them to pick one up for me there and bring it back if better value

You can never ever go wrong with Sony be it a TV, DVD player or even DVD Camcorder, a little but more expensive than the equivalent brands but you pay for what you get and that's quality

the Panasonic one is pretty good for the money
seeing as i work for them now i should give them a shout
