wtf , these are some serious expensive camera's you know how much beer you can buy with that?
I guess you'll prolly need those things for good quality, Now I got a dcr-trv 250E or something =), I like my camera but he isn't very good I think. earlier I watched the movie from camera on tv and I didn't thought it had such good quality. but I'm a student and don't think I can affort something that good

If you wan't good qual to edit it on pc and for example burn it dvd and watch it on tv, what kinda cam do you need?
is that the minimum?
and are you all kinda in this area of work study?
