Should i buy a dvd camcorder or wait?Will they still sell the dvd disks for camcorders or will it be replaced by the blueray.I dont want to lose out if i buy one that takes dvd’s.
I very much doubt it. We’ve already got hard drive camcorders, blu-ray media will be very expensive for quite a while yet and there are semi-conductor storage technologies waiting to be released that will make everything else pointless.
But then I’ve been wrong before!



get an HD recorder if you want one know. A DVD camcorder will get replaced. If you get a HD recorder with a hard drive and a blu-ray burner, you should be fine

DO NOT BUY A DVD BASED CAMCORDER. Because of teh way they compress the video data, they provide the worst available video quality of the consumer camcorder storage types.
Hard drives and some higher-end flash memory is better – but still highly compressed video.
MiniDV tape stores video using DV and HDV formats. This is the least amount of compressiom which translates into best available video quality.
