Handycam DCR-SR45 30 GB HDD 40X Zoom Digital Camcorder - MSRP $449.99

 

For the money, a very good buy. For a first time buyer, this is the better way to go instead of the tape method. A LOT less head ache this way. A+

Light weight. Easy to use features. Easy to download. Touch screen a plus.

Ha some trouble focusing in low light situations. Has no place to mount extra light source.

No flash for picture taking, but they turn out good.
