How to Compare Camcorders
2009
There is an incredible importance to a matter of how and why you should compare camcorders before buying, obviously with the most important reason being that you want to make sure that you will be getting the best quality and worth for your money that you can. There are so many options of camcorders available on the market today that is almost an obvious essential that you take the time to compare camcorders, otherwise how in the world would you know which one to get?
Why you Should Take the Time to Compare Camcorders
There are even websites that are specifically built to help you compare camcorders or other items, such as Bizrate, whose entire website is set up in order to help the customer select several items and choose between them. Bizrate is a company which is operated by Shopzilla, which is a leading comparison shopping service that was founded in 1996. The company’s mission is basically to enable shoppers to quickly and easily be able to find and compare and buy every possible item you could think of.
In fact, each month alone, Shopzilla connects over millions of customers with thousands of stores, and it should be known that Shopzilla also operates the Bizrate consumer feedback network that collects millions of consumer reviews of stores and products each year.
At the present time, some of the most featured camcorders that they offer you to compare between are: Sony Handycam DCR-DVD405 DVD camcorder, Canon XL2 Mini DV camcorder, Sony DCR-SR100 camcorder, and the Panasonic PV-GS500 Mini DV camcorder, for instance.
They also offer featured brands, in order to make it easier for you to narrow down your search, and their most popular listed brands include that of: Sony, JVC, Panasonic, Canon, Samsung, Hitachi, Toshiba, Aiptek, DXG, Gateway, Mustek, SVP, Sanyo, Sharp, and RCA.
It is quite obvious to see what the advantages of taking the time to compare camcorders – or any other product that you want to purchase for that matter – because in the end you will truly be saving yourself face. Therefore, you will soon realize that it well worth the small amount of time and effort to put into comparing the items, then it will be in the end and you didn’t and you end up having to pay for repairs or find that the item you purchased is otherwise not what you wanted.

Is there a website where I can compare digital cameras and camcorders?
I’m looking to buy a digital camcorder or camera. But I’d like to compare them. My requirements are that it’s 5 preferably 7 MP or more and that it has a rechargeable battery. Anything beyond that I am flexible with. also price is a big issue with me. Is there a website out there where I can put in my requirements and they’ll show me a bunch of cameras and camcorders that match my requirements?

10 Mp is the better choice. Google "discount digital camera’s" I did, and got a zillion hits, spent all day looing at them and then made my choice.
Good luck

The dpreview website mentioned elsewhere is by far the best. But please do not let wise cracks tell you mega-pixels are all the rage – hogwash and tripe. Go to the dpreview site- its puts all in perspective.

Good camcorders do not generally take high-megapixel stills.
Good still cameras that happen to take video store that video in a highly compressed MPEG2 or MPEG4 format. Lots of compression means not very good quality video.
http://www.cnet.com has ratings for both, but they are measured differently. http://www.camcorderinfo.com rate camcorders and has current pricing comparisons, but not still cameras and most of the camera rating sites do still cameras, but not camcorders…
Its a bit like comparing a Cadillac XLR to a Toyota Tundra. They are both vehicles, but should be used for different reasons, have different features and have different capabilities… I *could* try to haul stuff in the XLR, but I won’t be very happy with what it can haul compared to the truck… or I can try to go fast and corner in the truck – but I won’t be happy with what it can do compared to the XLR…
