- pardon me if this is a FAQ, but I'm new to this:
-
- I'm intereseted in buying a hand held video recorder and I'd like some advice.
- For example: what's the difference between VHS-c and 8mm or Hi-8 tape (i.e.
- which would you recommend and why) and what other salient features are a
- *must* (again, auto-focus, how good a zoom, etc) to justify spending big
- bucks and then being happy with it for a good amount of time. Lastly, with
- which companies (and products) has anyone had good/bad experience?
-
- Any help would be greatly appreciated. Either post a reply or E-mail me at
- CRE1@lehigh.edu. Thanks in advance.
